The very scarce prospectus from the Rosenbach Company for their classic 
bibliography of Tobacco ends today on Ebay. This auction has no reserve, 
because Katie Couric said reserves are "icky".

In 1937 the Rosenbach Company published "The Arents Catalogue. TOBACCO, Its 
History Illustrated by the Books, Manuscripts and Engravings in the Library 
of George Arents, Jr. Together with an Introductory Essay, A Glossary and 
Bibliographic Notes by Jerome E. Brooks".

This is the prospectus for that 5-volume set. The set itself will now set 
you back about $3500. This prospectus describing the set and soliciting 
orders will be much, much cheaper.

If you think about it, it's actually harder to find one of these 
Prospectuses than it is to find a set of the books themselves... so don't 
pass this chance up.
