Newcastle Bookshops: Robinson's

W. Robinson in the Grainger Market (opposite the Cheap Tab Shop) is a long established Newcastle bookseller with the atmosphere of a Parisian bouquaniste. Today it seems to concentrate on cheap paperbacks but in the 60s had antiquarian stock on the shelves above the desk at the south end and, indeed, was once also a publisher of local material. It used to be a good place for Frank Graham reprints and still has a decent enough local history section.
