bunvoyage17, In November while in upstate New York, we took a small afternoon trip to Saratoga Springs, a small, relatively affluent college town near where @seanbala grew up. We made two stops. One was Lyrical Ballad Bookstore. It was an amazing warren of shelves and lots of old books, maps, newspapers, and pictures. Funny thing is that even though he grew up here, this was Sean's first time going!

A room full of books on three sides. On the floor is a large oriental rug. On the far wall is a large wooden case full of old books with a glass cover. In the center of the room is a wooden display case with old books. The ceiling is low and made of concrete.
A small shelf that with a small label that reads Misc. 19th century books. There is a old book with the cover out that reads "Jessies Visit to the Sunny Bank" On the wall of the wooden book shelf is a sign with instructions for how to take the books off the shelf safely.
An old print from 1840s Britain that is on sale. We are not 100% sure of the context but we think it has something to do with extending the right to vote to Catholics in the UK.
