Any good comic stores in Louisianna?

[Theagenes]

Preferably with GA and/or pulps? It looks like I'm going to be called back to oil spill duty after Thanksgiving and I'll be in the incident command centers in New Orleans and Houma for a few weeks.

Houston is only a five hour drive.

I need to find a way to make BP pay for the trip. Any oily archaeological sites over there?

hell, just ask me nice.

Wrong BP, but if you want to pitch in....

[Theagenes]

Actually Billy, joking aside, I know you collect first editions. Are there any good antiquarian bookstores around? Surely there must be one or two in NO?

pre-katrina, MANY great used book stores. most went underwater. i think the faulkner house is open; would be worth visiting, but mainly as a museum---they were always a bit proud of their prices.

It's Houston... the whole city is an oily archaeological site.

the Faulkner house may only have been recently restored.. it also was nearly destroyed by Katrina

[Theagenes]

That's so sad to hear about the losses to Katrina, but good to know that some businesses are making their way back. I will definately check out the Faulkner house.

if you make it up to baton rouge, try cottonwood and thomas savage for books. as far as comic stores go, don't bother

For the right amount of cash.....

 

Get your story straight Frenchy

Wizard World bought the growing New Orleans Con and it will now be at the end of January in the Convention Center if you are still here then.

is this a good thing or a bad thing for the collector side of the convention?
