H & R Magic Books
Description
Visitors to the H&R Magic Books warehouse encounter a drab building, with a small sign on a side door marking the location. Walking up a bare staircase to a tiny entryway on the second floor, one is not sure what to expect inside, but once the door is opened, wonders are beheld.
The hallway is lined with shelves containing the latest books, magazines, videos, and DVDs. The first room on the right contains the stock of new books, multiples of most everything currently in print. The second room is the center of the business. The walls here are stocked with used and out-of-print titles, all arranged alphabetically by author. A table stands in the center, with packing and mailing supplies against the far wall. A little farther down the hall, there's another storage space, where files of magazines await potential buyers. Across from that is another large room that holds more stock, as well as a large chunk of one H&R owner's personal library.
Not counting the myriad individual issues of magazines, there are an estimated 5,000 different titles, although a "title" might just be a trick explained on a single sheet of paper. Thousands of books, all of which have to be carried up and down stairs when bought or sold. You would think two physics students would have thought of something simpler and less strenuous than that. But if Richard Hatch (he's the "H") and Charlie Randall (the "R") wanted to do things the easy way, they would never have mastered sleight of hand along with physics.
