Rare Books at a Hidden Barn in Connecticut

Just minutes away from New Haven, CT and Yale University, there are two unassuming weatherbeaten barns sitting amid a scenic pasture. Inside, owner Norm Pattis and store manager Meg Turner set up an intellectual paradise with more than 50,000 vintage, rare and out-of-print books, maps and ephemera. The store is open Wednesday through Sunday every week.

Whitlock Farm Booksellers features about 30 book categories including first editions and rare tomes
The second barn features a ground floor filled with fiction and an attic with maps and rare prints
Classical radio playing through a 1960s KLH radio
A few of the map browsing stations in the attic – with most maps ranging from the late 1800s to early 1900s
