In need of some serious muscle to hold up leaning rows of books? Has your search for the perfect bookends led you to dead ends and cul-de-sacs and down narrow alleys littered with the remains of flimsy, unsatisfactory bookends? The Wolfsonian–Florida International University’s Dynamo Museum Shop has heard your pain, registered your frustration, and is pleased to offer you bookends fit for your books. The Wrestler bookends, based on the much-loved Wrestler statue standing sentinel in the museum’s lobby, with its impressive muscles and solid bulk, is fit for, well, just about anything, including the task of helping your books stand proudly on their shelves. The bookends, created in collaboration with Levenger, a national retailer that designs and sells high-quality tools for reading, are available through The Dynamo Museum Shop beginning Thursday, June 2, 2011 and on the Levenger website at http://www.levenger.com/PAGETEMPLATES/PRODUCT/Product.asp?Params=Category=17-1163|Level=2-3|PageID=8135. The bookend retails for $99; purchase two or more for $88 apiece. A portion of the proceeds of all sales benefits The Wolfsonian.
