Capricorn Books Relocates In Jenkintown Borough

JENKINTOWN BOROUGH, PA — "Where's Waldo?"

Basically, not far away from its previous location.

Capricorn Books has moved to its new location, reopening after the Fourth of July holiday weekend as promised.

"We’ve worked so hard this past week to get the new shop ready to open, we’ve still got fixtures to hang and shelves to fill but we’re ready for you," Owner Jackie Botto said.

She appeared in a "Where's Waldo" outfit to promote the bookstore's new location at 745 Yorkway Place.

She launched a Find Waldo Local Search campaign for July, a nationwide “Shop Local” event co-sponsored by Candlewick Press and the American Booksellers Association, and hosted by Capricorn Books.

"⁠⁠This year, the great Waldo search coincides with our move," she said.

During the month, spot the mini Waldo at any of the following local businesses and collect a stamp or signature at the front counter.

Collect 10 or more stamps and bring your card to Capricorn Books to score a Waldo sticker and $1 off coupon (first 125 spotters only)!⁠

Collect 15 or more stamps and you’ll also be entered to win a deluxe Waldo prize pack plus more local prizes like gift cards and movie passes - stay tuned.

The search ends July 31.
