The couple receiving some care… check out where they landed
Needless to say no one was injured (aside from our neighbor’s store front). The old guy was mostly concerned about getting to his reservation at Canter’s on time. No lie!

OK TUESDAY
So the weekend came and went without incident aside from some kids accusing us of being racist for having books on Nazi-era wartime and the RESERVE fitted cap (donning the Star of David)… guess they overlooked our books on Malcolm X & Civil Rights to name just a few. Or the fact that Cappone & Noriega’s CNN War Report was bumping the whole time they were here. Oh well, what you gonna do?

GET THESE BOOKS
One of the best things about working at RESERVE (aside from sneaker heads) is the luxury to be able to sit, and go through our vast collection of vintage books. It’s like a library filled with nothing but good shit.
