| There is a Buddhist book store in Cambridge called seven stars.
I've got the phone number at home someplace. If I find it I'll
post it here. They're in the phone book, though.

1190.10 | Thanks | CARTUN::BERGGREN | Believing is seeing... | Sun Jan 07 1990 14:27 | 8 |
| re -1
Thanks for the pointer that Sagada is now Seven Stars. I had only
heard of Sagada a couple of years ago, and had never been there.
I have been to Seven Stars, (and love it), not realizing they were
the old Sagada.

Ahhh, book stores, near and dear to my heart....
There is or was a Japanese or Oriental bookstore in Boston, a few doors
up from Brattle book...
Consider, also, the wonderful treasures to be found in USED bookstores.
The wisdom of the ages (well, at least back to the dawn of printing),
lost to modern man (and woman), preserved and (sometimes) at a discount:
The aforementioned Brattle Book, of course, in Boston, off the Common.
An endless supply in the Cambridge area, especially around Harvard
Square.
In Suburbia:
Dunhams, in Bedford, on Main St (rt 225) just west of the
center of town traffic light. deja-vuish items towards the rear,
left hand side.
Book Bear, West Brookfield on Rt 9, about a mile past the center,
on the left (south). deja-vuish items upstairs, left as you come
off the stairs.
(Can't think of the name, anbody got a Worcester area phone book?)
Right hand side of Rt 9, part way to W Brookfield. Recently opened
shop. Lists "esoterica" as a specialty, had a disproportionate number
of deja-vuish items.
(And i could go on, but the yellow pages will do, BOOKS, USED...)
Standard disclaimer: Despite having given them lots of money, i have no
financial interst in any of these...8)>>.
good browsing

1190.15 | Vintage Books, Framingham | CIMNET::PIERSON | Tiger Food?? | Tue Jan 23 1990 09:00 | 13 |
| In downtown Framingham, semi next to Woolworth's:
Vintage Books
Good general stock, good amount of "deja-vu" stock.
deja-vu stock downstairs, hard left, a full set of shelves, floor to
ceiling. PLUS three boxes of astrological books near by PLUS another
stack of astrology up by the register (looks like they bought a
collection).

1190.18 | A spiritual being on a Human experience | FENNEL::ABRAHAMSON | | Thu Mar 08 1990 11:40 | 10 |
| I have noticed that there is a lot of things going on like the
Awareness center, and readers and places to go for various seminars and
such, BUT, they are all in the Boston, or Framingham area.
Do any of you know of places or people on the other end of 495 that
I could check out?
Thanks

1190.20 | Look for _Spirit of Change_ | CARTUN::BERGGREN | Believing is seeing... | Tue Apr 10 1990 12:40 | 14 |
| Jerry .18,
Sorry for the delay, I'm just catching up in DeJa. Not sure where
you live, but look for a quaterly publication in health food stores/
bookstores whatnot called _Spirit of Change_. It serves the Central
Mass area, particularly Worcester and surrounding towns listing many
practitioners and the types of activities/fellowship you may be
looking for.
Also, since I am on the staff of this publication I have some copies
of the Spring issue which came out about a week and a half ago.
Feel free to contact me off-line Jerry if you'd like a copy.

1190.21 | MID-WEST BOOKSTORES???? | MLCSSE::OVERHULSER | | Mon Jul 02 1990 14:43 | 7 |

Wisconsin. We will be going out there in August and are interested
in any source of info about bookstores which have good selection
of dejavu topics.
Regards,

1190.22 | Mid-West Bookstores!!!!Madison, Wisconsin | NSDC::SCHILLING | | Tue Jul 03 1990 07:56 | 14 |
| re .21
Cal, I've lived in Madison, Wisconsin for awhile and know of three
bookstores that will make for some happy browsing if you're
looking for dejavu topics:
- Shakti Bookshop, 320 State Street (608) 255-5007
- Mimosa Bookstore , right off State Street
- Ancient Future, Williamson Street
I know there are some in Milwaukee too, but couldn't give you
specifics. Maybe if you call Shakti, they can give you more info about
Bookstores around the Midwest. Bon Voyage!

If you're going to be in the Detroit area, I strongly suggest Mayflower
Books on 12 Mile Road in Berkley, MI (a northern suburb of Detroit).
Any subject you can think of is represented there.

1190.25 | Great New Hampshire bookshop! | SCARGO::PAINTER | And on Earth, peace... | Mon Jul 09 1990 17:23 | 22 |

Highly recommended:
The Toadstool Bookshop
Lorden Plaza
Milford, NH 03055
(603) 673-1734
To get there, take Exit 7W (101A) toward Milford, then look for the
Lorden Plaza (with a Shaw's store) on the right. The bookshop is two
shops to the right of Shaw's.
Their collection of DEJAVU-type esoteric books far surpasses my own. (;^)
Nice people, great background music, excellent selections, will special
order.
Other Toadstool Bookstore locations:
o Colony Mill Marketplace, Keene, NH 03431
o 3 Main Street, Peterborough, NH 03458

| re .26
I've been swamped here as of late, but tonight I'll try and round
up a list of good stores in the UP. It's about 300 miles from here,
but I do go up there alot and have a pretty good resource list.
Sorry for the delay.

1190.29 | Michigan stores | GLDOA::PAGEL | Now WHERE is that pillow ... | Tue Jul 17 1990 11:45 | 32 |
| re .26
Finally! I checked for stores in the UP, and, to my surprise,
found *nothing* listed as metaphysical/new age. However, I do
know of one store in Marquette that you might enjoy. It's
Snowbound Books, 118 North 3rd Street, 906-228-4448. A great store,
lots of old/used books, as well as new ones. Well worth a visit if
you're a book_browser and love to get lost among them.
Escanaba and Sault Ste. Marie Chambers of Commerce both report having
none. (In fact, Escanaba responded with, "We don't have ANY stores
that sell crystal balls or ANYTHING like that!" I imagine there
really are such places up there, but this person reacted with such
paranoia that I didn't push it.)
Traverse City has one - Higher Self, 328 East Front Street, 616-941-5805.
While in the Traverse area, I highly recommend a side trip to Benzonia.
Gwen Frostic has a wonderful place there. Wildlife reserve, book shop,
gift shop. She writes wonderful stories, poems and such, and makes the
most wonderful block prints of nature's wonders. Windows open down
into the print shop where her block prints are made into books, notes,
calendars, etc. Gwen is a delightful, tiny little lady ... nearing
80 years old, who will welcome you like family, and happily sign your
books or prints.
Have a great trip!
