Goulds is a real institution in Sydney. I remember when the shop was in George Street just down from Town Hall station. I always drop in when I'm in Newtown - you never know what gem you'll come across. Equally, given the masses of books stacked on top of each other, you never know what gem you missed either.

Re: PESO Goulds
That's an excellent pano and of a very worthy subject, Rob. I like this very much. Used bookshops are disappearing for all sorts of reasons; good to see there's some still around.

I tend to pop in whenever I'm in Newtown for a feed and it's definitely a stop when you're pushing tourists about the place giving them a taste of the city. I know what you mean about the same books being there, I always look in my favourite spots, miracles do happen, I just wonder what treasures are buried in those many unopened cardboard boxes?

Thanks Frank, I checked out Elliot's on-line, looks like an interesting little shop to visit too. Goulds is musty and due to the time that so many of the books have spent on the shelves and its proximity to a pretty busy commuter thoroughfare (plus the large roller shutter door) you can end up pretty filthy after browsing through a few books.
