=== Haight, San Francisco retailer === In December 1966, the Print Mint opened a second store on Haight Street, in the [[Haight Ashbury]] district of San Francisco, in a building that Moskowitz had purchased to install a bookstore. The city refused to give Moskowitz a permit to sell used books, so his plan was never realized.<ref>{{cite book| editor-first1=Chris |editor-last1=Carlsson|editor-last2=Elliott |editor-first2=Lisa Ruth |first=Lincoln|last=Cushing|section=San Francisco Bay Area Posters: 1968β1978|title=Ten Years That Shook the City: San Francisco 1968-1978 |publisher=City Lights Books |date=2011 |page=287|isbn=978-1931404129}}</ref> 1967 was an eventful time, and the store became a center of neighborhood activities and a main source of [[countercultural]] information and creative energy to the huge influx of young people coming into San Francisco that [[Summer of Love|summer]]. It grew from being a simple retailer into a complex cross-country distribution and then publishing operation. In December, however, Moskowitz forfeited the building and his plans for a second location for Moe's Books, bringing a demise to Print Mint in [[San Francisco]].{{sfn|Elliott|2011|p=287}}
