Vinyl & Books: Tulsa's Indie Shops
Tulsa's independent bookshops and record stores are the quiet backbone of the city's cultural life — places where crate diggers find rare pressings, readers discover books they'd never find at a chain, and the people behind the counter know their inventory because they've read and listened to most of it. This collection maps the best indie shops for people who still believe in physical media.
