Happy holidays to one and all! As you may have noticed there is going to be a last minute BOOK SALE December 15-17! I look forward to seeing my fans as well as making new friends. I can tell you about all the things that have happened since the last sale and maybe help you find that special book to give as a gift or maybe to keep for yourself! πŸŽ„πŸŽ

Hello, I’m Watson. I’m the resident greeter and PR rep (Puppy Relations) at Pages Past. I wanted to let you know the howlidays are coming up and I have a special announcement for you later this week. πŸŽ„πŸŽ

Watson was wondering if you knew about Small Business Saturday? He happens to know a really great local used and rare book shop that will be open on Saturday November 25th. In fact, he will be happy to greet you when you stop by to support Pages Past Used & Rare Books, Greensboro North Carolina! Pages Past offers gift certificates, which always make great stocking stuffers. πŸ“šπŸ“™πŸ“˜πŸ“—πŸ“•πŸ“š

Watson sure loved seeing everyone come out for the 27th Anniversary Book Sale and hopes lots of you will make time to stop by on Saturday while you're out doing your holiday shopping. He would love to see you again! πŸ’•πŸΆπŸ’•

Scenes from an antiquarian Book Sale....

10/28/2023

LOVABLE PUP ADVISORY: Watson, our overgrown and very spoiled pup will be in the bookshop this weekend. He loves everyone, but he does NOT have an indoor voice, and he weighs about 100 pounds. He likes to greet folks at the door, and after pounding your shins with his tail, he will frequently roll over and show you his belly... one of his finest achievements.

I don't always buy old books, but when I do it's at Pages Past. (Especially during SALE WEEKEND!)

We are a Used & Rare Bookshop, serving the Greensboro area since 1996. We have about 20,000 books, mostly hardback, dating (occasionally) from the 1600s to those published in the last few years. Many books are priced between $1 and $20, but we also have some collectible books. We especially like the older books... those published in the 18th century (and before!) to the early 20th century. We also sell on Ebay under the seller name Woodlandswalker..

In a world where everything goes faster and faster, and where life becomes noisier and more frenetic, why not stop in to a place where time takes a breather and old tomes of the past can be found again? Come in, have a cup of coffee, and visit with our friendly bookshop pup, Watson. Who knows what you'll find? Sometimes, the things that end up meaning the most are the things you never knew you were looking for. Why not stop and look?

A sincere Thank You to our local customers and friends who have supported our book shop since 1996. It is a blessing to do what one loves.
