| |  | | | In Brief
A unique collection of hilariously candid British real estate ads.
| | | | From The Publisher
“Will anyone take pity on a nasty old house adj. Regent’s Pk. Ter.? On still nights the friendly howl of the Hyena floats over the Mappin terraces & one can, maybe, imagine oneself far away from our acquisitive society. 9 rms., 2 bathrms. All in pretty foul order.” Roy Brooks became a legend in his own time for the puckish delight he took in telling the truth, the whole truth—and even the unwholesome truth—about properties that, as a real estate agent, he advertised for sale. From 1950 until his death in 1971, his fame for these revolutionary, outrageous, funny, and, on occasion, painful advertisements spread far and wide. To readers of London’s SUNDAY TIMES and OBSERVER, his property ads became essential weekend reading. Here is a selection of the best.
