Ginetto passionately ran the newsagent-stationery shop in via Ciro Menotti in Legnano. He was 90 years old
Legnano – The historic newsagent and stationer passed away in Legnano Ginetto Lodini, the “dean” of newsstands in Legnano. Active until recently in “his” newsagent-stationery shop in via Ciro Menotti in Legnano, which he had cared for with passion for years, now supported by his son Guido. Ginetto was 90 years old and hospitalized.
From the first cart for selling newspapers in Piazza del Popolo, which later became a kiosk, then the transfer in the 1960s to via Ciro Menotti, in the current newsstand, Ginetto can be said to be grew up among newspapers in the Oltrestazione neighborhood in Legnano.
Our latest interview with Ginetto it dates back to exactly one year ago, when, curious about how the world of newsstands was turning, we wanted to know about it from the voice of the rights involved. Here is an excerpt signed by our journalist Luigi Marinoni: “Both tell us how supermarkets have also affected the publishing sector, with the sale – if not always of newspapers – at least of the most popular magazines. Even if the newsstand predominates, alongside the printed paper there is a well-stocked stationery shop (Ginetto tells us it is practically the last shop of its kind left beyond the station) and there are many services offered to its loyal customers: photocopies, fax, prints colours, bindings, scans and email reception”.
The date of the funeral will be announced shortly.
