Harrison's Comics & Collectibles Photo Essay

Harrison's Comics and Collectibles, located in downtown Salem, Massachusetts, is a living time capsule of pop culture memorabilia and artifacts. Visitors are greeted at the entrance by a life-size Spider-Man statue standing off to the left behind store windows. Upon entering Harrison's, one can't help but feel overwhelmed by the amount of historical items lining the walls and shelves. It's safe to say that just about every corner, shelf, and row of Harrison's is occupied by something: Marvel comics superhero busts, Universal monster movie posters, CIB (complete in box) Star Wars and Star Trek action figures and playsets, Pokémon cuddle pillows. Each piece has its own history and story to tell.
