Then and Now: Librairie Gilbert Joseph, 30 boulevard St-Michel, Paris

c. 1930-2009

The Gilbert Joseph bookstore first moved to the boulevard St-Michel in 1929, and despite its major expansion since then, has continuously occupied its original building. As the main bookstore has moved further up the avenue, the store at no. 30 is now a separate stationery section.
