Our book buying this year led us to a great library of a few thousand music books, from Abba to Zevon, and lots of Beatles. A gargantuan collection of Modern First editions that took two months to move, one vanful at a time, is now being processed and many smaller collections have entered our bookstream; one notable book: an early signed Leaves of Grass. Plus, Our art annex is stuffed with vintage art (including many already framed) and ready to fill your apartment walls.

As 2026 opens, we wish to invite you all to visit and review our newest acquisitions. Wishing you all a happy and healthy New Year.

On this day, in 1908, Jack Johnson made history when he became the first African-American to win the heavyweight boxing championship.

Flux City stopped by to chat with John King, longtime manager Deb, manager Chris, and veteran bookseller Marley—who’s been part of the store for over 30 years—about what makes this place so special.

To everyone who voted, visited, browsed, recommended us to friends, and turned our stacks into a local institution: thank you.
