Description   Leslie A. Morris (au) The second catalogue in a series documenting the private treaty purchases made by Dr. Rosenbach in Europe in the 1920s. While some of these stories have been related before, this cat. goes beyond the anecdotal to document the specifics of these private transactions. The story of the dispersal of these books & manuscripts from collector to dealer & then back to collectors, private & institutional, helps make concrete the debt American collectors owe to those of the past. Contents: A note on the checklists; The Helen’s Tower Lib.; Printed books, & Manuscripts; The Percy Lib. & the Earls of Caledon: Printed books, & Manuscripts; The Lough Fea & Ettington Lib. of Evelyn Philip Shirley; The Grosvenor Lib.: & Printed books, Illustrations. (Philadelphia: Rosenbach Museum & Library, 1989)
