DESCRIPTION - A collection of letters, essays, and reminiscences captures the excitement of the Berkeley activist bookstore that was at the center of many political and literary tempests of our time, including the anti-war movement and the fight over censorship. Cody's Books (19562008) was an independent bookstore based in Berkeley, California. The first store opened in 1956 on Euclid Avenue in Berkeley, California. It was founded by Fred and Pat Cody. It moved to a larger location on Telegraph Avenue in 1960 and moved to another Telegraph Avenue location in 1965. Cody's was best known for its extensive selection of literary, political, and scholarly titles. In 1977, the Codys sold the store to Andy Ross, who owned it until 2006. Cody's Telegraph Avenue store held their closing sale July 4 - July 10, 2006. The Telegraph store was the flagship store until it closed in 2006, sparking a controversy in the local press over the cause. One explanation given for the closure was that it was caused by pressure from corporate chains like Borders. As of June 2015 the location was still vacant. The Cody's San Francisco location closed in 2007 for a similar reason. Cody's was sold to Japanese book distributor Yohan, Inc. in September 2006. In March 2008, the last remaining store moved from 4th Street to its final location on Shattuck Avenue due to a rent increase. Financial pressures forced the closure of the store for good on June 20, 2008. inventory #21442. Seller Inventory # z21442
