Caption from metadata for 535-2807-1: "Ivan Vladik, of The Book Harvester, shows how looks can be deceiving, as he checks one of his "cheater books." The store specializes in renting books to the movie and television industry. Some of those books have been hollowed out to make them lighter for actors to handle."
Caption from metadata for 535-2807-2: "Ivan Vladik prepares a stack of old books to be shipped to a movie set."
Caption from metadata for 535-2807-3: "At The Book Havester, which rents books to movie and television productions, the books are measured in feet."
Caption from metadata for 535-2807-4: "A bulletin board at The Book Harvester displays cards and window badges from productions that have featured the store's books."
