Part of the answer is he travels to find them.... This trip took us across the country....
We were meeting our beloved bookseller pals Barb and Cliff Erickson of To and Again Books. They used to live in CA and exhibited near our booth at SDCC. They are now in Maine. Our rendezvous point for this trip was in NJ for the Sunnybank Gathering (see post below), followed by book scouting in NJ and PA.
Here's Stuart Ng crossing the Delaware....
We got to Philly... but never had a cheesesteak sandwich :(
We took planes, trains and automobiles...
to find little bookshops and bookstalls....
You will note that, in the photo above, Stuart is proudly wearing his T-shirt for Eric Goldberg's Animation Crash Course book :)
We enjoyed this huge mosaic at the East Market train station....
I love the feeling that art is everywhere if you're looking for it...
A trip like this takes planning, of course....
Book scouting w/ Stuart is part Indiana Jones adventure.... part Sherlock Holmes sleuthing... be sure to pack lots of patience and persistence... and you need that secret ingredient, Stuart Ng karma, to find the treasure in the trinkets....
We love to bring them all back for you to enjoy at our showroom and on our website.
