Cool Used Book Store, Part 1
For book lovers, a place like this needs no explanation. Lovely Wife and I enjoy looking through this place.
I will, however, point out the jumble of books in the third photograph. See the chair there on the right? That's where the owner/cashier sits. If you walk into a book store, and are immediately met with such a massive pile of books right beside and behind the front counter and cash register, can you imagine what the rest of the store is like?
It's like finding treasure.
This is in the old downtown section of Melbourne, Florida.

I like a lot this kind of book store, you find original things, some literature treasures and books out of market... :)
nice pis, special the second one

What a great place - I love books. If you liked that then you would love a place in the UK called Hay-on-Wye. It's a small town that is chock full of used books!

heavenly......my kinda place totally.....i cant live, breathe without them......in fact i do up my place with the books i have collected over the coupla years i have been in United States...left my old collection back in the custody of my parents in India...
The third pic is precious....loved it completely....:)
Used bookstores are one of my favorite hangouts. They all have a unique smell to them, kind of musty, and I love it. Discovering one I haven't visited yet is always a thrill.
I would DEFINITELY go this bookstore.... it's an illness really - my book addiction.....
You can't beat a store like this!! Great images!
You are my man-of-the-week. Used-book stores are so much more interesting than new-book stores; used books have the added value of making one imagine what previous owner/s were like and where the books has been. I went to my favorite used book store last week, except I got too busy looking around that I forgot to ask if I could photograph; I must go back this week.
