Catalogue (270x210mm). 88pp.
Our new catalogue, Fine Books & Manuscripts, offers for sale the very best items we have acquired in recent months.
Arranged chronologically, it begins with a beautiful seventeenth century English Bible, and includes first editions of major works by Jane Austen, Charlotte Bronte, John Keats and Evelyn Waugh.
Its highlight is the original autograph manuscript for Max Beerbohm's iconic story of the 1890s The Happy Hypocrite, one of the great 1890s MSS remaining in private hands. Other manuscript material includes the remarkable archive of E. H. Shackleton's expedition surgeon, and Ian Fleming's notes for From Russia With Love.
There is a fine original E. H. Shepard drawing from The Wind In The Willows, as well as four exquisite original illustrations by Jessie M. King.
