Twenty-six
years ago, our founder and matriarch, Elaine Dessler
knew what she wanted. She envisioned a place where
readers could go to feel at home and browse through
thousands of books in a warm family atmosphere. It would
be a place where book lovers could buy their favorite
books at great prices and even trade in their used books
for credit. This could only become a reality by
dedication to her guidelines and with very special
customers like you. We hope to carry on Elaine's legacy
and continue to improve and provide the best to you in
the years to come. Thank you for your continued
patronage.
| In Memory of
Elaine
 On August 3rd, we commemorate
the birthday of our beloved founder and matriarch, Elaine
Dessler. "Love you, big uppa sky!"

Our
Mascots |
|
 
One day, while prospecting for
gold in the hills of Western Pennsylvania, the ground beneath
Redmond Aloysius Goodbook caved in and he fell into an
abandoned coal mine below. In the fall, Red broke an arm and a
leg and he was unable to escape on his own.
After being trapped for two days and nights
alone in the mine shaft with only a few books to read, a stray
mule happened to come across the place where the old
prospector fell through the ground. As it turns out, old Red
was able to toss a rope up to the animal which pulled him
slowly but surely up to safety.
Red tried to find out where the mule came from
but no one seemed to know. He finally decided to adopt the
animal as his own and on Nov. 1, 2005, our loyal customers
helped name Red's new companion. Since then, Red A. Goodbook
and Milo have become inseparable and they now serve
proudly as our trusted mascots.
