General Info

Aladdin Books was founded in 1982 in Fullerton, California. For 25 years our original brick and mortar shop served as a general used bookstore with an emphasis on movie material, magic (conjuring) and science fiction and fantasy literature. We were fortunate to be trained in the field by two fine bookmen, Jerome Joseph and Al Ralston. The late James Lorson, fellow Fullerton bookseller, graciously provided additional mentoring. We also benefited in many ways through the years from other fellow bookmen who bestowed both knowledge and opportunities on us from time to time. We began internet marketing/sales via abebooks.com in 1997 and via eBay in 1998. In 2007, Aladdin Books relocated their brick and mortar operation from down-town Fullerton to our present office/showroom/warehouse in Fulco Center. While we now focus on internet/mail order sales, visitors who make appointments are still welcome. You may browse our eBay store inventory and make purchases 24/7. Our abebooks.com inventory consists of about 11,000 books in select fields such as: magic, circus, music, cinema, literature, western Americana and California history.
