Source Book Store is a massive, maze-like store with a huge quantity of used books and other media, including hard-to-find books, movies, music, out-of-print magazines, comic books, records, and maps. It is much bigger than expected, with shelves everywhere, a back room, and a basement with a second maze. The experience is like walking into a time capsule, a true blast from the past and a hidden gem where you can get happily lost. The staff are great, super nice, and helpful. The store can feel a little cramped and claustrophobic, with fairly narrow aisles that may not be the most accessible. The basement is a bit of a struggle to navigate. The organization could be improved, and some sections are very small. Prices can seem a bit high for the quality, but there are always decent finds and new items to discover. It is a fantastic book store with a huge selection, offering a super fun visit for collectors and those who love books.
Personally, I have mainly transitioned to audio books, but as far as physical book stores go, this is quite nice. Massive quantity of used books, very maze like and much bigger than you expect. I didn't even make it down to the basement.

A true blast from the past hidden gem for collectors of hard to find books, movies, music and out of print magazines and comic books. Like walking into a time capsule. Great people who work there too. Great experience. Hope to come back again next year!
