Wow!! That looks like a neat-o bookstore (yes, I said "neat-o"...I'm from the 1930's). The place looks like it has a lot of character, and you definitely captured that in this photo. :)

Inviting... indeed, I imagine I could easily lose myself in here for the day! A treasure trove, no doubt. Thanks for sharing, I haven't seen wear like that on a staircase since elementary school!

Your caption says it all. An absolutely mythical, magical place I someday will walk into but, for now, I'm glad to have seen your incredible shot of all it's bookie goodness. Love it!

thanks everyone. I wasn't happy with the shot and was frustrated at how diffcult it was to take it (i caught the one second that the staircase wasn't full of other tourists).

Are second hand bookshops dying out? How do they differ from country to country?
Help to create a high quality photo-archive of second hand bookshops (especially exteriors and/or window displays, but also interiors, customers, shopkeepers, etc) with additional information about location (addresses and geotags).
Interested? Please add this photo to the Second Hand Bookshops Group at:

Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Shakespeare and Company, and we'd love to have your photo (and, if possible, the other photo that you took) of the bookstore added to the group.
Thank you in advance!
