My parents lost their income from PS & N when it went out of business in
the seventies, but they fortunately kept some of the books. I often rummage about in my garage, and come up with something incredible. For example, I have
a 1920 George Philip World Atlas, hilariously titled the 'shorter' edtition: it weighs about 5 LBs! It's huge!
I never got to see the shops, being in NZ at the time, but I did visit my great-uncle Jack Philip at Birkenhead in the 1980's. He had been one of the Directors for many years.
loved the photos posted here. Thanks.
