[Back Creek Books]

Greetings Booklovers,

We are pleased to offer:
~
(No. 9325 )  Monaghan, Jay (Compiler), Foreword by James G. Randall (Paul M. 
Angle, Series Editor). LINCOLN BIBLIOGRAPHY, 1839-1939, VOLUMES I AND II 
COMPLETE (COLLECTIONS OF THE ILLINOIS STATE HISTORICAL LIBRARY, VOLUMES XXXI 
AND XXXII, BIBLIOGRAPHICAL SERIES VOLUMES IV AND V).
Springfield: Illinois State Historical Library, 1943-45. First printings, 
Full cloth, Octavos, xlvi, 519 and xii, 560 pages, black and white plates. 
Good.
      Still the standard Lincoln bibliography, describing nearly 4,000 
items, including over 200 in languages other than English, published through 
1939. Bound in slate blue cloth over boards. Spine lettering is faded on 
both volumes, nearly illegible on volume 2 (spine gilt on nearly all copies 
of the second volume of this work was defective). Boards show some fading 
around edges, a few light extremity rubs, browning to textblock edges. 
Volume I just slightly shaken but hinges not cracked. An unsurpassed 
reference to Lincolniana.    $75.00
