Atomic Explosion

My favorite store in Baltimore, Atomic Books has opened up another location. The new locale focuses on toys and collectables. Anyone who has visited Atomic Books in the past few years has noticed how cramped it was getting with all the new great things, so this annex, if you will, is a welcomed addition to Baltimore entrepreneurship. The shop is very clean and well laid out, all of the items setup in thoughtful displays giving you the chance to peruse in a casual fashion. They are stocked with lots of great stuff. There is an experimental dance studio above the store so the ceiling thumps and rattles with the feet of those convinced they are graceful. The bookshelves are filled with compilations of graffiti art and custom vinyl toy makers. Those of you in B-more who are afraid to step into the mall this time of year will find a nice surprise in Hampden’s newest shop Atomic Pop. Yes, malls are scarier then Hampden!
