In this particular case I’m looking not for online sources–which are numerous–but stores I can physically visit while I’m in San Antonio, where I can thumb through stuff before buying.
I think the Cathedral has a shop too, but it was closed when I last went by there.
I’m definitely putting Christ the King on my to-do list, even though it’s further out of central SA than I’d planned to go. I see it stocks Catholic magazines, and I’d love to look those over.
My local Catholic bookstore doesn’t really stock magazines.They say they don’t know which ones to carry. They don’t want to get liberal ones and anger the conservative shoppers or conservative ones and anger the liberal shoppers, so they have nothing. They also said they don’t want to carry any titles that won’t sell, so they’d be stuck with unpopular, dated merchandise sitting on the shelves.
I’m also looking for shops that carry old religious prints–or old-looking ones–such as those from Cromo in Italy.
