  Notes	Andrew Muir, subject of "Muir & Mirrieless", by Harvey Pitcher, pub. Swallow House Books 1994. In Tsarist Russia Muir & Mirrielees was to Moscow what Selfridges was to London or Jenners to Edinburgh. In the firm's long history three men played the leading roles: Archibald Mirrielees, Andrew Muir and Walter Philip. Using original family archives and photographs, Harvey Pitcher tells the story of these unusual Scots, their families and the famous shop which they created.
