John King Books would like give a special thanks to the first responders that helped the bookstore remove antique bottles of potentially dangerous picric acid and Antim. Sulph. (short for Antimonium Sulphuratum). Your professionalism was remarkable, your communication skills excellent.

John King personally thanks you for keeping us from being violently disassembled!
