Foggy Pine Books, Boone, N.C., which was featured last February in a commercial on a special post-Super Bowl edition of the Late Show with Stephen Colbert, provided an update on Facebook yesterday.
"We have so much to share with you today!" the bookshop posted. "You may remember that we were featured on @colbertlateshow back in February. Since then, we've processed over a thousand orders, shipped books all over the country, and are finally preparing to reopen to the public this week (tomorrow, in fact!). They were kind enough to send us a plaque to recognize our feature & to support another small business who got the Colbert Bump, @lazerladies! You can see a close up photo of this awesome plaque in our story today. We are so so grateful for the support we received from the Late Show with Colbert & viewers--it truly kept us afloat during a really difficult time this year. Because of y'all, we're able to celebrate our five year anniversary next week! Thank you so much y'all! I can't tell you how much it means to us."
