This so delightful, sort of like being at Bookmans. I always feel like a waterfall of books is waiting for me to read them. A long time ago and in a book nook far away on Tucson Boulevard and Broadway a guy and his dad sold used books..........Boy, look at them now!!! This is a spectacular ad.

Thanks so much for posting this! I, too, was a Bookman's lover (we lived in Mesa so the one there was our main stop, but we'd often make a "Bookman's Run" to Tucson).

What a fantastic store (and the best trade policy I've ever seen). Changing Hands and even Half Price Books were a great asset for bookers as well.

This brought back some good memories (we live in a smaller town in Oregon now and there isn't anything like a Bookmans anywhere except Portland)
