Bspiel also for art supplies:

Pearl when the shelves are stocked well
A.I Friedman
And for an artist's store that is limited but different Guerra Paint and Pigmnet
http://www.guerrapaint.com/

Zabar's upstairs

B & H photo-the largest independent camera/electronic store in the world, where the salespeople are adults who sell you what you need, not what they know

Colony records
Bleecker Bob's records

Matt Umanov guitars-one again adult salespeople who really know their stuff

Chess Academy and Chess Forum on Thompson

Forbidden Planet for graphic novels and sci fi stuff

Pearl River-Chinese department store

Gracious Homes

Warren (Adu), I was thinking of NYCAS not just for art supplies, but for fine papers, which are increasing hard to find anymore in the City. Kate's Paperie, for example, might as well now be called "Kate's Crafterie."

BSpiel

Try Paper Presntation on East 18th Street. Mrs Adu puts her own books together for our trips where she makes the covers and folds store bought paper into pages.

Many artists, however, buy their supplies at NYAC.
