Ssalefish GSO First Look #193 for 1.13.21
Before we close out the first week of the new year, it’s time to look back on some of the big books we bought successfully and sold safely throughout the crazy year! And this is just Greensboro, while we navigated the global pandemic like everyone else, didn’t attend any conventions other than Mask-Con, and opened another store in Concord! There are so many more pictured that I didn’t even list! And odds are I forgot to take a picture of some stuff or already deleted the pictures! If one of them went to your home, speak up!
