 to see there's some still around. Chicago used to have so many fun used
 bookshops.  We, of course, still have some, but not like the old days.

Thanks Christine, fortunately we still have a few good used bookshops
in Sydney but the numbers are dwindling for sure.

 LOL, I hope not Chris, Goulds looks more like a fire hazard than a
 bookshop for the most part. ;-)
 
Trust me. I've seen it in person :=)

Sadly (or, rather, happily) we were having such a great time that we all
forgot to take photographs!

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.



Cheers

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 Paul, it's really just documentary but cruising about in the

of being magically transported there.

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.
