Old Town Books, Alexandria, Va., has "new thank you notes for our online orders designed by the team at @basecampprinting. I'm so grateful for the support from other small businesses like Basecamp who designed these for free, for our contractors like @lettershopnyc @stephdeephoto and publishers who have extended our terms on invoices due. There has been so much suffering in the world lately, so much bad news. But there has also so much beauty and generosity. So much goodwill, support, so many neighbors 'voting with their dollars' to keep our little indie bookstore open. Thank you."
