Sobre este artículo
Mansfield Centre, Connecticut: Martino Fine Books, 1999. 29 volumes in 2, complete. This edition is legible with the naked eye, even for old geezers such as myself. The page and print size are larger than in the Mini-Print Corp edition. Brand New in perfect condition. STILL SEALED in the publisher's clear plastic SHRINKWRAP. NO rubbing. NO fading. Bright, clean, square and tight. Sharp corners. NOT a library discard. NO owner's name or bookplate. NO remainder mark. Fresh and crisp -- obviously never read. No date (but 1999, First Martino printing, "Strictly Limited to 200"). Reprint of the 1868-1936 originals. No bibliographical reference library is complete without Sabin. In BIBLIOGRAPHY, ITS HISTORY AND DEVELOPMENT, Breslauer/Folter call this: "the most important of all Americana bibliographies, comprising well over 100,000 entries." They go on to say: "Sabin, a New York bookseller, started this compendium, but it was Wilberforce Eames, the learned bibliographer at the New York Public Library, who added an immense amount of out-of-the-way detail." The work was brought to a conclusion by R. W. G. Vail in 1936. Includes collations, locations, notes on contents, etc. 2 oblong volumes. Each volume measures 11" wide by 8.75" tall by 2.25" thick. Bound in the original gilt-stamped maroon cloth. Sheehy AA563. Besterman 309. This heavy 2 volume set will require extra postage for Priority and International shipments.

Sobre About Books
About Books (Genny and Michael Winne, proprietors, formerly of Parsippany, New Jersey) has been selling rare and OP books since 1985. Besides book fairs and mail-order catalogues, long-time collectors and dealers will remember our lengthy For Sale ads in the Antiquarian Bookman and similar magazines. Our inventory of over 40,000 volumes is especially strong in the specialties listed, but contains fine books in a variety of other fields as well. Because most of our books are stored in protective boxes, rather than on shelves, they cannot be viewed as a whole. If you wish to visit us to examine specific titles, please provide 24 hours notice and we will make them available for your inspection. Phone calls to (702) 750-2722 are welcome, but please, only between the hours of 8am and 10pm (west coast time).
