Military

Just in: a beautiful collection of books on warfare and weaponry, including ancient and medieval, samurai, WWII, etc.  A lot of these are oversized, heavily-illustrated works, and all are in sharp, clean condition.  All on display in a specially marked area on the main aisle (near the gun books described below).

Gun Books

We've just purchased a large collection of books about firearms, gun collecting, and weapons history.  Includes some hard to find books on specific gun models, Winchester and others.  All on display in a specially marked area on the main aisle.

We've been included in
San Diego Magazine's
"Best of San Diego"!

MUST-HAVE ACCESSORIES!

Ever wonder how we keep our books so shiny and clean, even as they're constantly handled by customers? Gaylord mylar dust jacket sleeves are the secret of our success! We stock assorted sizes of these clear, archival jacket covers. These inexpensive covers protect book dust jackets from soiling, rubbing, and tearing--about the only thing they can't prevent is sun damage. Pick up a few to cover your own books!

We also carry Magic Rub Erasers, the non-abrasive eraser that removes pencil marks (and in some cases, even smudging/soiling) from almost any kind of paper. These erasers are much gentler than the typical rubber kind, which can damage the fibers of paper--especially that in older books. Never mark your books in ink! Use pencil and you'll always be able to clean them up with a Magic Rub!

Need a great gift for a book lover in your life? Purchase a Gift Certificate in any amount. These will never expire and can be used for anything in the store. You can buy one in person or by phone--we'll even mail it to the recipient on your behalf, if you like.
