MISSED THE DIPSET REUNION SHOW-

Family time.

I pretty much only wear Reason and some vintage clothes, and my toaster works fine, so Black Friday is kind of irrelevant to me, except for this place.

HP (below) and his wife, Linda (next photo), have dedicated their lives to operating this amazing bookstore store in a re-claimed barn in the northern part of Helsinki State. They have one of the most extensive private collections of books around. People from as far away as Canada and Atlanta come here to buy and sell rare and vintage art books and literature.

Never not getting nerdy.

Find of the day. I’ve seen this book sell on amazon for upwards of $150. Here? $40 plus a 50% Black Friday discount.

This isn’t your local Barnes and Nobles. Many of these books are rare copies, first editions, and out of circulation. Finding autographed copies of your favorite book here isn’t that much of a reach. Unfortunately, the business is facing hard times and as the elderly owners prepare for retirement, they’ve put the entire business up for sale, books and all.
