I found 2 books by Harry Mathews and a few by Jane Bowles, not the most obscure writers, but missing from many shelves in NYC. Also, when it came to the classics, they seemed to take care with which editions they stocked. Every used book store has a copy or 2 or What Maisie Knew, but Mast had a used copy with the Edward Gorey illustration as its cover. The art and film section were also really top-notch.<br /><br />None of this seemed to drive up the prices, which were very reasonable.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-683382864156505640.post-15523790020031972522011-01-02T12:38:33.805-05:002011-01-02T12:38:33.805-05:00bring back Etherea!bring back Etherea!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-683382864156505640.post-66802054063761741892010-05-10T12:41:38.792-04:002010-05-10T12:41:38.792-04:00I went in on Sunday and can't tell you how man...I went in on Sunday and can't tell you how many times I heard someone exclaim, "Cool!" as they walked by.
