BiographyHistory

Like William Dymock (q.v.), George Blackmore Philip worked at the Sydney bookshop of George Robertson (q.v.) before beginning his own business in Sydney about 1895. Along with John Malcolm Forsyth (q.v.) of Dymock's and T. E. G. Smith (q.v.) of Cole's Book Arcade, Philip was one of the founders of the Australian Booksellers Association (and its Foundation President). He was also President of the N.S.W. Publishers' Association, and Foundation President of the Tamarama Surf Life Saving Club.
