Best Used Bookstore in the Area

When I don't want to read a novel on my Kindle, I always walk to this shop to find the book in print. The store is small, but there are literally stacks of books every where.

This used book store feels a bit like you've entered the home of a hoarder. The books are floor-to-ceiling and stacked two deep on many of the shelves. Browsing is loads of fun, as it feels like there are real treasures to be found if you're willing to put in the time and effort. After half an hour or so, I started to feel a little vertigo due to the sheer volume, cramped corridors and lack of...

This is probably a collector's paradise, but I had neither the time nor the inclination to go about perusing the endless rows of books stacked tall enough to technically be considered a mini metropolis hidden within a storefront. God forbid there's an earthquake of considerable size, because anyone left inside …

Cashier was very rude and place totally unorganized. Went to check out and didn't want a book that was too expensive and clerk insulted me because I told him if the book was over a certain price I didn't have the funds to purchase it. Price the damn books and be nice to your patrons jerk! Will never go back to this place again!

OH MAN! THIS PLACE! OH YEAH! I love/hate this place, it's incredible, but at the same time a bit out of my price range. It's like they hit it right on the head with some products but on others they just go way over, like how did they get that price. But nonetheless they always pull me back in.

The best decision I ever made!

Well, Burbank is the media center so why shouldnt we have this shop? It fits right in and what treasures they have! When I graduated college I shopped here for accessories for my 50's party. I was able to pick up some really old magazines…

I LOVE this store. I am a huge Audrey Hepburn fan and I searched high and low for a particular poster from "Breakfast at Tiffanies." I saw the poster hanging in a restaurant and knew it existed, but I was having a really hard time…

Find that hard-to-find item here!

Besides their used books and vintage posters, they've got an excellent selection of old magazines. These are perfect for that hollywood costume designer or makeup artist who wants to study the styles of the 70's from the magazines that…

Really Cool Book Shop

Located a few a few steps from the Media Center, this tiny storefront is full of vintage movie posters and used books. They have a fantastic selection of magazine issues going back decades.

This place is a veritable warehouse of books, posters, magazines and other memorabilia relating to the movie business. As with any collectible shop, the stock comes and goes as often as most Hollywood careers do. Considering the nature of many items, especially those that are autographed, prices can be a little intimidating. But, for those well-versed in collectible shops (and know what to...
