The Biblio-mat at The Monkey’s PawI trailed through the boiling hot Toronto streets for an almost an hour to seek out the Biblio-mat, a ‘coin-operated vending machine that dispenses randomly selected old books.’ It was well worth it for this book on Marks of American Silversmiths… No, the concept is actually really fun and there’s always a thrill in the surprise of an unknown title! Anyone who has ever received a book subscription will know what I’m talking about.The Monkey’s Paw itself also has a great collection of quirky second hand books. -- source link
