  1. I'm looking for some old Boy Scouts from Dayton or Fairborn, OH, from the early to mid-60s who know the rest of this 👇👇👇

  2. This week's #GrindayFriday is new EP 'Buried Half Dead' by Dayton, Ohio's DEAD FILTH. Super gross song titles here, as you'd expect with goregrind. But there's some real dynamics and interesting riffing going on in some of this. The drums are great. Several spots of unique genius. And you can listen to this whole thing in just a couple minutes.

  3. There's an upcoming #Netflix doc abt murderous #vampires in #DaytonOhio in the '90s. "Vampires of Gem City" claims #DaytonOH is home to the 2nd largest #VampireCoven in the U.S., outside N'awlins.

    A defunct #goth club–Asylum–was allegedly vamp HQ. I went a few times…cool club; not my jam. I've friends who were regs & now have Sanctuary parties in a similar "vein." I know the investigator—sold him occult books.

    Strange days.

    A recent addition to our TTRPG selection is this like-new 2017 Mouse Guard roleplaying game, 2nd edition rulebook. Also, if the '80s-vintage Marvel Super-Heroes RPG is your jam, I've got a handful of game supplements, some never-opened!

    Not a gamer? Stop and explore. There's much more in-store!

    Larry Flynt & HUSTLER rubbed folks the wrong way. His tools were shameless sex, brutal honesty, vulgar humor, and calling out political & celebrity hypocrisy.

    His journey began with strip-clubs here in Dayton. "The Hustler" was a newsletter for his clubs–a fact usually ignored in local PR.

    Of the big 3 men's mags, his is the only one still in print.

    Independence from monarchy is the reason for the season. Independence means taking responsibility for the system. 'We the People' are part of the system. Our job is to Vote!

    Happy Independence Day, U.S.A!

    Pete Rose, or "Charlie Hustle," isn't officially recognized for his feats on the ball diamond, which he earned. His un-official activities got him banned-for-life from Major League Baseball & its Hall of Fame.
    America's pastime has a code of honor.

    If it's good enough for the MLB, why shouldn't it apply to something as important as President of the United States of America?

    It's Dayton Airshow weekend!
    I shot this photo during Friday practice. I'm zoomed in all the way, the planes are fast, the air is hazy, the heat distorts the light... A rather challenging photo session.

    We've got a lot of aviation and other books in here. If you're in town, stop and check them out!

    This old bookrack – frail, but still in use – is in the earliest photos from the shop. 80+ year old retailer bookshelves. I've never really stopped to appreciate them in this aspect. Through the years, we've lost a few to wear and this one's fading. There are 5 more still in use, thankfully in better condition.

    Is this a meme reply in a 76 year old comic book? Is it proof that time travel exists?

    No. Of course not!

    I couldn't resist poking some fun when I found this last night.

    Panel excerpt from "Jeanie" № 19 (May 1948).

    One of the coolest things about our shop is that you might find any topic. Spooky, sexy, fantasies, ridiculous, undisputed, absurd, clinical, exciting, over-the-top, under-the-radar, around-the-corner, and always something interesting!

    Todays feature is one of 500 copies in an un-numbered #LimitedEdition hardcover.

    The book collects authorized interviews with members of the experimental music group Einstürzende Neubauten (translation: Collapsing New Buildings).

    An acquired taste, rarely heard by accident, & well worth an intentional listen–if your mood fits.

    In the '70s, Dad humbly advertised occasional offerings in Rocket's Blast ComiCollector (RBCC); a fanzine of renown that ran from the '60s to the '80s. This photo is one of those nearly 50 year old listings. It's an interesting look back at comic collecting before the Internet. Naturally, the listing is no longer valid.

    This 1996 book commemorates Olympiad XXVI, held in Atlanta, Georgia, USA. Our shop was 61 years old.

    Today is the 80th Anniversary of D-Day, when WWII Allied forces took back the beaches of Normandy. This shop was 5 years old.

    In a few weeks, France will again be focal as World athletes complete in the XXXIII Olympics. The store is 85 years old.

    Stranger was the 1st sci-fi to make the NYT bestseller list. It begins on dry Mars, ends on green Earth.

    Dune won the 1st Nebula award, was nearly set on Mars. It begins on green Caladan & ends on dry Arrakis.

    Both won the Hugo, dabble in differing lifestyles, politics, belief systems, the importance of water, & are waiting for you here, now.

    Stay hydrated!

    By request, a little flashback to a 1966 newspaper article about the shop. This story mentions Dad (Walter Bonnett) too, so – early Happy Father's Day!

    We've got great Father's Day Gift ideas on hand for all types of Dads!

    Hey! It's been a minute. Lots of memorializing this weekend. Around here, the memories never seem to cease... here's a bit of our Hall of Fame, a couple of vintage Jet magazines, new stories about Lovecraft's old ones, a bestseller, an old parish cookbook, and an '80s TV tie-in! Don't forget, we've got vintage comics, movies, and a whole lot more!

    A couple of recent arrivals. I'm a bit distracted so, I haven't any commentary at the moment – these vintage covers simply caught my eye. We have books of all types; something for nearly everyone. If you find yourself on our street, stop in for a look around!

    Sex & relationship advice in the 1970s was vastly superior to that of the '50s, which were better than the '30s... We should know. We've been here the whole time!
    These seem a little mansplain-ish by today's standards, & probably so. Still useful, though. Maybe good for laughs!

    Our shop has a large toy collection–Not for sale. The collection is great for 3D photos!

    Open this image full screen. Cross your eyes until the left and right Pinocchio merge in the middle. It will seem like there are 3 pictures instead of two. The middle will be 3D!

    I have a soft spot for books in matched sets. It's said these riffed on James Bond–An
    American art historian/collector uses his job as cover, & pays for his hobby performing hits for a secret gov't org.

    The Eiger Sanction was also a 1975 mountain-climbing action film produced, starring, & dir. by Clint Eastwood, who did most of his own stunts.

    Here we go–my first regular daily bookstore post on mastodon.social. I'm gonna start off with a 'bang' (wink, wink).

    Recent arrivals from the sunshine state, a pile of kink, leather, & more; these being the safest to share. If you don't already have vacation plans, maybe take time & learn to REALLY enjoy yourself this summer.

Others linger like the memory of perfumed passion after the musk of the dusty trail, numbering into the hundreds. Lace your chaps or your corset & rustle up some rollicking adventures!

    New to our Biographies... In '72 Hughes' Corp. built the Glomar Explorer mining/salvage vessel. To build it, a giant crane barge was made by Sun Shipbuilding. It was all a CIA cover, to recover a wrecked Soviet sub. That crane, the Chesapeake 1000, still works today at the MV Dali-shipwrecked Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse in Baltimore, MD.

    If "The Spirit of '76" makes you think of Will Eisner instead of America's birthday, you might be a pulp fan.
    When you hear "Psycho" and think of Robert Bloch instead of an ex, you might be a pulp fan.
    Will Eisner's Spirit Casebook 1: True Haunted Houses & Ghosts (1976, 1st print, 1st ed).
    Yours Truly, Jack the Ripper (1962, 1st/1st).
