We did a little spring cleaning recently and sent a lot of vintage and antique books to auction — mostly stuff that has been in storage or has set on the shelves for far too long. You can check out the listings below. The auction ends at the end of the week, and you can get some great deals while supporting the shop! Thanks!

It’s the best bookstore day of the year! Saturday is Independent Bookstore Day and we would love to see you. In addition to our regular selection of beautiful books, we have some gift bags for each customer, and we are well stocked with our very popular blind dates with the book! We are open Saturday 11 AM to 6 PM. And don’t forget, Garfield Park is home to two bookstores: ours AND .type.shop. Double the bookstore shopping, double the bookstore fun!

Saturday is independent bookstore day! It is your chance to show some love to independent bookstores in your local community. We hope you’ll pay a visit to Garfield Park where you can hit two bookstores at once! Stop in to visit us at Pen and Pink and then head across the street to our neighbors .type.shop! We’ve got lots of special books for the celebration and some great giveaways ❤️

PARIS BOOK HAUL! I am freshly back from a long overdue vacation to my favorite city in the world where I overindulged my love of collecting vintage books. Here’s about half of the gems I managed to squeeze into my suitcase on the trip home. Regular hours at the shop have resumed! Stop in for a book haul of your own and/or let me regale you with tales of my most recent Parisian adventure ❤️

The bookstore will be closed until Wed, April 8. In the meantime, you can find me wandering the streets of Paris. 😍
