R. M. Williamson did it in Bits from an Old Bookshop in 1904; Will Y. Darling did it in The Private Papers of a Bankrupt Bookseller in 1931; Orwell did it in “Bookshop Memories”; and Augustus Muir did it with Baxter in 1942. And, in a more generous manner, Jen Campbell did it with Weird Things Customers Say in Bookshops in 2012.
