Maggs Bros.: Fuchsia Voremberg Appointed Managing Director
- by Announcement, Rare Book Hub staff
Fuchsia Voremberg, MD
Maggs Bros., announces.
We write with news from 48 Bedford Square, where the antiquarian booksellers Maggs Bros Ltd., have appointed Fuchsia Voremberg as Managing Director. She has been with the firm for a dozen years, and will be familiar to some from her work on the BBC's Antiques Roadshow. She will continue as a specialist in Voyages and Travel. After nearly 30 years as MD, Ed Maggs will continue as Chairman and as senior expert in modern books and manuscripts, and the two look forward to working closely together alongside the existing board of directors and the entire team of fifteen rare book and manuscript experts.
The firm was established in 1853 by Uriah Maggs, and in the intervening years has handled countless remarkable individual books, collections, manuscripts and archives. Notably, in 1931 Ernest Maggs and Maurice Ettinghausen brokered the purchase of the Codex Sinaiticus (a strong candidate for the most important single volume in the Western Judaeo-Christian tradition) on behalf of the British nation from the Soviet Government, and they continue to advise and work with many of the most important institutional and private collectors worldwide.
The firm is based in a handsome townhouse at 48 Bedford Square in Bloomsbury, and maintains its historic Mayfair connections through its shop at 46 Curzon Street. It exhibits at international antiquarian book fairs including London, New York, California, Boston and Hong Kong and continue to publish its famous series of catalogues, which are now comfortably past 1500 in number.
