I'm always looking for interesting A. Edward Newton material:

-books and pamphlets inscribed to known book collectors or booksellers, or 
individuals whom I can identify as "interesting."

-ephemera, including:  prospectuses for books, whether AEN was primary 
author or contributor;  announcements of Newton talks;  newspaper 
clippings, etc.

-letters and ms material

-books from Newton's library, but they must either be identifiable as 
having been in the Newton sale or as having belonged to Newton -- ownership 
signature, notes in text, etc.;  bookplate alone isn't enough as many 
circulated and were tipped into unrelated books.

I'm likely to already have seen anything posted on ABE.

Thanks
Dave
