Hustler Store

[Maria de los Angeles]

I'm planning on going to a book signing by Michael Grecco at The Hustler store on 12th and Washington as part of Art Basel. Grecco is on a book tour for a very artsy (and pretty tasteful) coffee book about adult entertainers.

Has anyone ever been to the store? Not that I'm in the market for lingerie or "toys," but I'm sure this store would be a fave among honeymooning couples. ;-)

I would love to take photos but I wonder if it's like those stores on Lincoln Road that don't allow you take photos.

I've been the Hustler Store on Sunset Boulevard in Los Angeles.

I don't think Larry Flynt would mind you taking pictures, especially during a book signing. But from experience dealing with uptight store managers in South Beach, don't ask for permission. Look like a tourist and just shoot.

Hi Maria de los Angeles,

I was there once, because I was waiting on my hair stylist to finish next door. The store is huge and surprisely they have more clothes than sexy lingerie or "toys".

I don't think that you will any problem taking pictures, and as Gus told play fool and say "No hablo Ingles". ;-P or use Italian " Io non parlo inglese" because everybody knows spanish.

We were in the Hustler store in August. It's directly across the street from Mansion. I didn't see anything too bad that would make me blush or anything. Just Hustler merchandise. We didn't search the whole store, but did take a look around. It is a huge store. Have fun.
