Deze beroemde pennenzaak van Philip Poole in Londen moest in 1989 de deuren sluiten. De huur werd plots verdriedubbeld. En daarmee verdween ook weer een klein stukje Engeland. 56 jaar lang heeft Poole pennen verkocht over de ganse wereld. Ik denk dat hij nog steeds gemist wordt. Ik ben gelukkig met de doosjes die toen daar gekocht zijn: 7 stuks met telkens 100 verschillende pennen, en er zitten inderdaad geen twee dezelfde bij!
Philip Poole, London's favorite purveyor of pens had to close doors in 1989. The rent of his shop tripled. With him went another little piece of England. Poole has sold pens all over the world for 56 years. I'm sure he's still be missed. I am lucky to own 7 small boxes, each one filled with 100 different pens. Indeed, no two pens are the same!
