The hunting season that never ends

Some booksellers see … [Read more...]

The sign out front calls The Printed Page a hidden gem. It’s an absolute gem and for bibliophiles the best place on the planet! The collection of books from A to Z and as far back imaginable will keep you coming back for more. Treat yourself to an honest to goodness gem 💎 of a bookstore. It was worth every mile to get there!!!!!

I happened upon this bookstore as I walked down Broadway one beautiful summer day. Discovering the Printed Page Bookshop was the best part of that day's journey. I now make it a point to visit as often as I can. The selection is vast and the owners are exceptionally kind, thoughtful and helpful. I always walk out with some sort of treasure.

Here are a few photos I have taken. I most sincerely cannot recommend this bookstore enough. Stop in the next time you are in the area. You will be glad you did.

There seem to be two kinds of used bookstores. There are the messy, crowded shops, overflowing with books and magazines of all shapes and sizes, often too many to count. And there are the neat-as-a-pin shops, with all the books organized and carefully placed and nearly uniform. The Printed Page is mostly a bookshop of the neat and orderly kind, but there are a few touches here and there of an opposite sensibility.

That perhaps should be expected, as the Printed Page is actually a joint operation between fifteen or so booksellers. It is a small shop, housed in a converted home, and the shelves are snug. It's quiet and cozy. There are books you'd expect (folio editions, military history, thrillers, poetry, mainstream hardcover fiction) but there are surprises, too, such as the odd Big Little Books under the front counter and the original art throughout the store.

Their motto is "Cool Books, Warm People." I was certainly given a pleasant welcome when I shopped there. I was actually determined not to spend a lot of money, and I didn't... but I did come away with a number of prized books that I had been after for some time.
