Description

First Edition, 2 vols., large 4to, xxvii, [1], 328; viiipp., loosely inserted is an invoice from Winifred A. Myers Ltd. made out to Miss Jean Preston (formerly of the Department of Manuscripts at Henry E. Huntington Library), 187 full-page photogravure plates, orig. buckram, a fine set. A most important catalogue. 118 of the 183 manuscripts described in these volumes were acquired from two outstanding collections, those of Earl Spencer, with the Althorp Library in 1892, and from the Earl of Crawford and Balcarres collection, formerly at Haigh Hall, in 1901. ìPhysically the Rylands catalogue is probably the most sumptuous of the published - as opposed to privately printed - catalogues.î ó Pfaff.
