An update for anyone coming by this page, but I have posted a FLICKR set of photos and a short essay about the importance of NYC in my life growing up in NYC:

In short: Grover Van Dexter—the owner of the shop—is closing the business at the end of the month. Rent increases and age have caught up with him and he’s decided to quit no rather than later. Sad news when I heard it when I passed by his place. But he’s a great guy, sold me some great stuff and allowed me to photograph the inside of his awesome store so all can share the wonder and magic of the world he created.
