Swipe
Ask your local bookstore where the "retail design" or "typography" sections are and watch them return a blank stare. Ask the people at Swipe and they'll likely follow-up with "Are you interested in historical typography or new work?" Such are the wonders of specialization. Swipe carries an extensive selection of books centered around the advertising and design theme. The small space is wallpapered with books, but what space they do have left they fill with interesting products, most of which come complete with a small note explaining the products' significance in the design world.
