The LA bookstore I remember most was Opamp Technical Books on Sycamore in Hollywood. But they're gone now.

So many happy memories of that place!

Like the time I went there in the early 90s as a teenager to get a book about this new html thing. It was so new they had just one book on the subject!

Oh, so sad to hear that its no longer there .. it was a staple in my young engineer life, so many decades ago now, and was definitely a rare gem in the area. I remember one Saturday morning, the herculean effort it took to get past the junkies and into OpAmp for a supply of fresh techdat. Sheesh, so sad to hear its gone.
