Crumbs!

When Robert Crumb became literary editor of The Observer in 1996, the book world was all ink and paper, the smell of cigarettes, coffee, and strong drink…

So runs the Arts & Letters Daily link to this story. Robert Crumb, literary editor of the Observer? It would've been a great choice, but, sadly, they mean Robert McCrum.

Update: shame - they've corrected it already.

    “By nice coincidence, the story of the public-school boy with magical powers came to a close in the same month that Tony Blair stepped down from his premiership.” Not bad that.
