John K. King Used & Rare Books

A four-story building houses over 1 million books including an impressive collection of used and rare. This colossal store founded by John J. King in 1965 has been described as "one of the largest and strangest collections in North America." Not necessarily a bad thing...but what makes it so strange? You'll find volumes such as 1920s German erotica and original photos of Mark Twain next to Mao's "Little Red Book" written in the original Chinese. It's a wild maze of tomes and chronicles - one you'll have to section off a large block of time to explore.
