Vroman's Bookstore has been around 120 years! May they be around another 120 is my wish!

If you are considering buying or selling a home, a luxury home, luxury investment real estate, luxury vacation homes, or luxury beach properties in Southern California, Los Angeles, Century City, Westwood, West Hollywood, Beverly Hills, Marina Del Rey, Venice or Malibu, feel free to contact me at me at 310.486.1002 (m) or homes@endrebarath.com or visit one of my websites athttp://www.endrebarath.com. I am a pet friendly realtor and I contribute a portion of my commission to local animal rescue organizations.

Such a community treasure. There are very precious few left here, and they need us to nurture them and their staff.

I sure hope you do the same out there with Vroman's.

George Souto I so agree with you on this, just to give you an idea I have met Ann Rice there the first time....Mark Boden the second time I actually seeked him out and I could write a chapter of who else....and that was in a short 17+years....

WOW! That's quite amazing! To think so many other bookstores have come and gone and this one remains after 120 years! That's quite a compliment! I'd love to know what their business plan is and how they manage to do so well.

Endre, I certainly hope Vroman's Bookstore will be around for a long time to come. Love books and I don't think I can go into a bookstore and leave empty handed.

Hi Endre Barath, Jr.

It is wonderful to see a business still thriving after 130 years and the big box stores have not ruined them as so many others were.
