A long-standing stationery shop in Edinburgh is set to close, with the owner taking a "step back" due to health reasons.
Mumtaz Hussain, owner of Newington Stationers, confirmed the sad news of the shop closing down and admitted it was hard to let go considering his father, Karamat, originally bought the store in 1984.
A closing down sale sign in the shop window caught the eye of locals who were quick to post the news on social media, as dozens were left gutted about the imminent closure.
