The sign consists of a green dragon with red plates and scales on its back and tail attacking a silver spaceship. The spaceship represents Science Fiction (which explores what is possible), while the dragon represents the Fantasy genre (which explores the impossible). Beneath this part of the sign is a separate black sign with the name of the shop in yellow letters.
"This place is without any doubt the SF mecca of Stockholm. This is not one of those small nine square meters and four shelves of sci-fi literature spots, but a rather big store with a selection of anything connected to sci-fi or fantasy on its stock. Besides all the new paperback releases from US and Britain SF bokhandeln offers comics, books on sci-fi related movies, videos, CDs, DVDs and even games. The store is quite expensive, since books in Sweden are not cheap in general, but there is a second-hand section which may prove to be helpful in this way. A visit to this place can be an adventure even for sci-fi-not -infected people who can experience the specific atmosphere of this place.
The store has a history dating back to 1977 and has changed its location several times. A must for all the sci-fi fans… The store also has a branch in Gothenburg."
