It used to be a store that was known around the country, like Scheltema in Amsterdam, when they opened at their current location in the 1970s they were the biggest bookstore in Europe.
Yep, Broese Kemink (as I still know them) and Scheltema will both be gone if Polare folds. That will be a sad thing, even if I don't really buy paper books anymore.
