We love our little photo studio at TLC headquarters, but sometimes to get the best images of our vintage rings and engagement rings we have to venture into the world outside the office. Recently, Michelle Souliere, owner of The Green Hand, welcomed us into her bookstore to photograph some of our vintage rings on some of her vintage books. The Green Hand opened in 2009 and, as their Facebook page accurately states, they are “an eclectic used bookshop that encourages curiosity” whose motto is “a good book in every home and a good home for every book!”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Green Hand is a paradise for any book lover with an interest in the stranger side of life. In addition to having a fine selection of books on subjects ranging from H. P. Lovecraft to ’80s pulp horror paperbacks and everything in between, the shop also sells owner Michelle Souliere’s first book, Strange Maine: True Tales from the Pine Tree State. So if you’re in Portland, Maine and are looking for a used book store with a slightly twisted sense of humor (in the best way!) stop by The Green Hand.
