Back to Normals
It was a mild Autumn day, warm, with hazy sunshine, and it had been 4 1/2 years since my last visit, so I risked the badly damaged, potholed, decaying streets of Baltimore to travel to Normals Books and Records on East 31st Street.

Not much has changed with the store or with the neighborhood (still sketchy and Inconclusively Gentrifying) since I first started going to Normals in the early 1990s. 

They always have some interesting things on display in their window............stopping to examine the displayed items always confers some instant Hipster Credit.
I came away with a modest collection of sci-fi titles and a 1985 copy of the book of the Friedman brothers' comics from Heavy Metal and National Lampoon, Any Similarity to Persons Living Or Dead Is Purely Coincidental
I'll have a post up about the Friedmans' book pretty soon. 

Always nice to be at Normals, on a nice Fall day..........
