Upon entering Rust Belt Books, visitors immediately perceive that tell-tale odor of aged books and paper. With stacks-upon-stacks of books that feature every subject at ridiculous prices, this is everyone's favorite bookshop in the entire city. In addition to books, the store carries a ton of vintage magazines, manuscripts and other rare treasures like library catalog tables filled with anachronistic postcards, letters, etc. On occasions, Rust Belt hosts in-store performances and other events, so check website for more details.
