This was originally a sign painted on the wooden door round the back of Booths, in the side street where the Cinema now is, in the days when Richard Booth made a big thing of bringing books into Hay from all over the world.
Parking on Lion Street to unload lorries may be more difficult - it's a narrow road (well, the side road is narrow, but it is also used by traffic less).
So I'll keep watching to see what appears inside the shop....

Those large wooden doors, with the original writing still visible, are still on display inside Booth’s bookshop. I’ve seen them near where the cafe used to be.
A travesty that Gord has gone and now it’s just yet another flight of fancy. He’d been there long before all these nauseating gentrifiers had even heard of Hay.
