John Martins Book

Hi all,

Over the years I have seen some great threads on John Martins, Myer Centre and the old (more memorable) David Jones on this forum!

Last year I decided to write a book on John Martins - I couldn't accept that one day the wonderful memories of Johnnies would fade forever.

So far I've had about 100 interviews - deep in research - if you have memories to share or can assist in other ways (memorabilia to photograph/sell) - I welcome any assistance!

Thanks,
Paul

Welcome to the forum!

My stepgrandfather (and Nana, who passed away almost five years ago) both worked there until the mid/late 1990s. Would you like me to speak to him?

It turns out you already know him and have spoken to him plenty over the years - his name is Michael. Small world.
