We are used book sellers and writers working from a mobile bookshop in London, Ontario, Canada. The books we love are uncommon and charming: offbeat pulps, fine literature, artist's books, local history, counterculture, quirky non-fiction, rare scholarly books, and comix. We carry a good number of these titles as well as a great selection of general used titles in our travelling bookmobile.

We work mainly from our bookmobile which travels around our city and province visiting festivals, events, local fairs, markets, and literary readings. Some of these events we throw ourselves, some are larger events (organized by other passionate people) such as the Home County Art and Music Festival. Our bookmobile's travels are posted on our Instagram.

We offer a newsletter as well (worth getting just for our cheeky essays) that announces where we will be in the coming weeks and months.

Altogether we're busy, dedicated folks, and are always ready to hear from readers, book collectors, event organizers, or eager arties looking for a place to call home. Mostly, we just love books a tonne and want to share that mutual love with you.

Please do drop us a line if you're interesting in learning more. And do say hello if you're in the neighbourhood!
