More for perusal than serious book-buying, Les Bouquinistes (book peddlars), with their characteristic green metal lockers and sit-around-all-day attitude, form a vital part of Parisian folklore. Most vendors are out along the banks of the Seine come rain or shine, selling an array of antique and not-so-antique books, manuscripts, prints, and postcards. Don't miss them - having no legal status, they are very likely to disappear one of these days.
