Val's Favorite Things

I thought I'd share some of my favorite non-book items that we carry here at The Fountainhead Bookstore.  If you'd like to order any of these items, please feel free to give us a call at 1-828-697-1870

This Whale Tale Pen Holder strikes my fancy, especially because I'm a big Moby Dick fan, and of course our logo is a whale (fountain head - get it?).  It is elegant and stately, yet unique.   $54.00

I like all the Lilly Pulitzer stationery products (who can resist those patterns?) but I especially like these pens.

We frequently get asked "How did you come up with that name?"  Below is the definition of the word that inspired us - it is a tribute to all the authors who continue to astound with the amazing things that come out of their heads.  Our mascot, the whale with a fountain of words coming out of its head, doubles as a tribute to Moby Dick.

foun * tain * head - n.  an original source of something

(one of the definitions for "fountainhead" from The New Oxford American Dictionary)

 And with that in mind, we heartily thank our favorite authors, the original sources of their works!
