End of an era for family running Freeman's Bookshop
Ninety eight years of a family serving customers on Molesworth Street came to an end today, when Freeman's owners Tony and Lorraine, worked the last day in the shop they've been running for 44 years. They took over the shop from Tony's father Bill in 1975. But the family's association with the street goes back even further, with Tony's grandmother opening a milk bar on Molesworth in the early 1920s.
