Have always wondered what happened to all of Miss Hanff's large collection of books, and the young couple, Kay and Brian Huson, who lived in her apt. bldg. and who were life-long friends of Helene's.

@jekorb I suppose the Helen’s collection of book have been donated to some public library…

Like you, I still wonder about all those people from book store and Helen’s friends from NY.

I would love to hear from Frank Doel’s girls and also Cecily Farr’s.

Helene is watching "Brief Encounter" @ 3:45.

@sapoul

Thanks so much sapoul !

I've been cudgeled my brains to recall the movie's name.

I sow this movie twenty and some years ago (hahaha) but

couldn't recall neither the movie's name nor actor's name.

@SophyaAgain I tried to contact the woman who had a Helene Hanff/84 Charing Cross Road fan site which was quite complete, but none of her e-mail addresses were working. Have no idea how to get hold of her but may try again. I did find and write to Elena (Ena) Gaussen, the painter who did several oil paints of Miss Hanff while she was in England and in NY. Ms. Gaussen has a website. She has not answered me, but I hope she will. Nice to talk to someone else who loves Helene's work!!

@SophyaAgain She's watching Brief Encounter.......one of my favorite old English black and white movies from way back when. It's extremely romantic.
