We celebrated 'National Yo-Yo Day" at high noon on Sun. June 8 in front of the Melrose store, with an attempt at a "World's Record" in a stunt involving Yo-Yos, Parking Meters and Good Humour ice cream. It's all to celebrate Donald F. Duncan Sr.'s Birthday.
This will be up and running by Sat. June 7 and is really exciting!
For the first time, you'll be able to find "Everything your Mom said you didn't need - under one roof". We're planning the first series of joint promotions and look forward to a lot of fun and hard work. At the same time, we've been forced to relocate our Valley store during June. It looks like we'll be moving directly across the street into a larger, newly remodeled facility. However, everything is pretty much up in the air and conditions are changing daily. As soon as we're sure of the plan, we'll let everyone know.
Because of The Memorial Day Holiday, New Comics will arrive on THURSDAY, 5/29 instead of the normal Wed. that week
Thursday, May 29, 2003 is "New Comics Day" at the Golden Apple and in consideration of The BookExpo America, the normally hectic goings on will be supplemented from 6pm to 9pm to give visiting Librarians and others a chance to "Study" Comic Fans in their "Natural Habitat".
"New Comics Day, especially the large shipment at month-end, usually brings out a large number of Fans to view, evaluate and argue the merits of new releases" said Bill Liebowitz of Golden Apple. " In addition to the regular "meeting" of our informal Comics Crew, we've scheduled a signing with the creative team from Archangel Studios who will be previewing the current issue of their popular "RED STAR" comic book and graphic novel series. This should give visiting Librarians, and others, a chance to see our products displayed in a fully functioning environment and to observe the level of consumer interest in various new products the day they are introduced.
