Mereby's
Mereby's is the Fleet Street bookshop of John Mereby, which doubles as a meeting place. His catalogues offer sermons, maps, imported prints, technical pamphlets, scandalous novels and auction lists, and some titles are held beneath the counter for known customers. It is said his lists let half the city buy an air of seriousness from pamphlets and sermons.
