Very small resale shop but found some amazing stuff at amazing prices... If you love an old book, comic, or just the window shopping type, come give it a visit!

Shop owner was such a cool guy. We talked about comics, classic Godzilla movies, and his collection of Heavy Metal magazines! Will definitely come back for more!
