The "crowd" in the local bookstore in Manly on July 17, 2005 at 8:58 am. |
I know that people have shown images on TV and in the newspaper showing the frenzied crowds waiting for sales of the new Harry Potter book to start. Manly had it's own frenzy but it was hard to tell. The picture above shows all eight of the people in the store for the official start of sales. Sorry, I mean nine people because I forgot to count the baby in the car capsule.
In front of the girl in the pink Ugg boots is the first box of books and on the other side of the box is the owner. When it was time the owner asked the girl to do the honors by cutting open the box for him.
