ICONIC Frankston bookshop Robinsons will celebrate its 60th birthday later this month.

Philip and Moira Robinson opened Robinsons Bookshop in Frankston in 1963. In 1992 it moved from Frankston’s Central Carpark to Station Street Mall, where it remains today.

The bookshop will host a party for its 60th anniversary on 26 October, 6pm to 9pm. It will feature giveaways, prizes, trivia, refreshments, authors, memorabilia, and an “exclusive members” sale.

Robinsons now has locations across Victoria. It was acquired by Susanne Horman in 2007. Philip Robinson died in 2019 aged 89.

Robinsons Bookshop can be found at 3/11 Station Street Mall, Frankston.
