About me: About every 10 years since 1976 something significant has happened to Little Old Bookshop. After the first 10 years, and the great earthquake, there was a new larger shop on Greenleaf. 10 years later, I bought the shop, made some upgrades, and developed the L.O.B. logo. 10 years later, we're happy to announce our new location at 6708 Greenleaf Ave, just one block south of the old location between Philadelphia and Bailey! We have over 12,000 sq. feet of space! We now have room for a full line of new books, live entertainment, and events. Visit littleoldbookshop.com
Join us every 1st and 3rd Tuesday of the month at 7 p.m. for our Mystery Book Club, starting March 3rd 2009.
Every third Thursday of the month is Open Mic. Poetry Night at 7 p.m. Come read your original poetry and unleash all that pent up teen angst, emo sadness, gothic romance, and general ennui.
Upcoming dates are:
Nov 19
Dec 17
Every last Wednesday of each month we have live musicians at 7p.m.
Every first and third Tuesday is our Mystery Book Club at 7p.m.

Who I'd like to meet: Bibliophiles with a shopping addiction.
Last year our official Pirates Magazine's tattoo shop "Studio City Tattoo(Ye Olde Tattoo Shoppe) "Cap'n Slappy and Chumbuckets personal tattoo shop and home of Talderoy got beat by a TV LAND tattoo Shop to come in second to a TV show(And thanks to her for the great exposure to the tattoo industry that her show has given,I'm just saying). Let's show TV Land that pirates rule!!!!! Please click on the link and vote for Studio City Tattoo,it only takes a minute and will help them out alot. Thank you friends
great turnout for open mic poetry! glad to be a part. sorry i left so quick, but starving poets need to eat. and when it comes to Zi Teresa's food, one cannot pass that up. GET MY BOOK IN before i run out of money to buy it!
You guys need a night of 8 min scenes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it would boost your sales so much! think of the people looking for scenes to do in your store buying all those plays =D
Oi, a Suicide Club fan, huh. If I taught screenwriting, I would use the intro scene (schoolgirls, train, jumping together) in that movie as an example of "hooking the audience." The film goes crack/Velvet Underground/postmodern mid-way through. Baffling, like mass suicides, I suppose.
Woohoo! You got a lot of movies, Little Old Bookshop!
Season's Greetings, everyone. We hope you are having a great holiday season.
One of the most stressful elements of the holiday season is the age old question: “What do I get for that special person?"
So, for those who find it difficult to find just the right gift, we are offering a "Holiday Gift Certificate Special" which is 50% off a photo session and an 11x14 print. This offer expires on January 15th, 2009. You don't have to give away your purchase, you can keep it for yourself if you like!
Elias Photography gift certificates are great gifts for special employees, spouses, parents-to-be, young families, thank-you gifts to great customers, or a “from Santa” gift to both you and your spouse. Thanks for allowing our comment
I can't tell you how woderful I feel when I stand up and share my inner most with such lovely people. I love the butterflies I get... they are the very best. Ever.
