[Rarebooks] Announcement: New Spring List of Rare Books & Autographs: 35 Select Items

[Charles Agvent]

Our new Spring catalog contains 35 select items, mostly signed books and 
hand-colored plate books but speckled with other rarities as well. 
Included are books signed by Einstein, Earhart, Yeats, and several 
Presidents including Kennedy, Fillmore, Eisenhower, Johnson, and Truman 
(to his Secretary of Treasury).  The Dedication Copy of radical John 
Reed's first book is present as well as an unpublished manuscript by him 
and a signed advance copy of Pearl Buck's Pulitzer Prize winning THE 
GOOD EARTH. There are several wonderfully illustrated books including 
Osborne's 1742 Collection of Voyages with 37 maps, most by Moll and two 
featuring California as an island. Hand-colored plate books are 
highlighted by Andrews's THE BOTANIST'S REPOSITORY, 1797-1815, and 
Chaumeton's famous French herbal FLORE MEDICALE. And we musn't forget a 
19th century German Natural History Manuscript with drawings, a signed 
limited Stephen King, and the First American Edition of DRACULA. We hope 
you enjoy browsing through.
