Is this the original bookshop started by Sylvia Beach?

[@MooMooAway]

According to Wikipedia: She is known for her Paris bookstore, Shakespeare and Company, where she published James Joyce's book Ulysses (1922), and encouraged the publication of and sold copies of Hemingway's first book, Three Stories and Ten Poems (1923).
