Dear All,
To-day is last day at Berkeley Square for Maggs Booksellers. However, they should soon be safely installed at 46 Curzon Street, and at a warehouse in the suburbs.
My wife and I are currently 'downsizing', and the removals firm talked of needing a second lorry for the books. I feel for Ed and Ben, Valerie and the rest of this great institution.
I will keep my memories of the original premises in the same mind-store where I hold the old Reading Room at the B.M., and Duke Humfrey's at the Bodleian.
