Zusammenfassung:Citing the highest figure is Roberta Rubin, owner of The Book Stall at Chestnut Court in Winnetka, III. Rubin, whose store boasts an inventory of 59,000 volumes, tells PW, "Our classics section, and parenting and trade paperback and cookbooks and children's: they're all primarily backlist. Except for the big blockbusters-of which there aren't that many-backlist is most of our sales. I'd estimate at least 80%."
