Don't Buy Paper from a Creep

Saturday C and I went the Paper and Book Expo at the Shriner's Auditorium. The auditorium in Wilmington is a small arena where they hold conventions, the Shriner's Circus and Rodeos and other events. It is amazing what a group of people with  common purposes and goals can accomplish

I agree with you re Mac & Moore. I have been in there several times since they moved to the current location on Mass Ave above Porter Square and I will miss it--I bought some old 1970s Ernie Butler books in there for really reasonable prices, and a lovely 1990s reprint of Saqqara Mastabas with Margaret Murray's much-cherished essay on the Anubis cult in Protodynastic times, amongst other treasures.

But the one old guy who has kept the place going has looked tired and worn out every time I've been in there, and I think he's ready to move onto other prospects--perhaps a chaise longue on a verandah in Boca Raton. He's earned it, by the look of him.
