Times noted of the auction sale of books &tc. of Zeitlin & Ver Brugge: "For 40 years--until it closed Nov. 3--Josephine Ver Brugge Zeitlin welcomed visitors to the red barn on La Cienega, the home of Booksellers. This week she has been telling them, tongue in cheek, that the old building "is going to become a mini-mall."

At 10:30 a.m. today at 815 N. La Cienega, auctioneer George Lowry, president of Swann Galleries of New York, will offer to the highest bidders an eclectic collection of 273 lots that includes Zeitlin's books, antiques, scientific apparatus and even his file cabinets..."
