George Orwell's original publisher, #VictorGollancz, is selling its huge #Orwell Archive to private collectors.
theguardian.com/books/article/

Orwell's son Richard: "Once Gollancz material is acquired by private collectors, it could disappear into the ether for ever."

Gollancz is now owned by #Hachette, one of the publishers suing the @internetarchive (#InternetArchive).

@petersuber @internetarchive who wants to crowdsource a campaign to bring this to the commons?

@petersuber @internetarchive For real fans --
however this goes, I will say that
"The collected essays, journalism and letters of George Orwell"
was one of the truly great reading experiences
Seems to be on Internet Archive, certainly in good libraries
