Sobre este artículo
Dawsons of Pall Mall, London, 1969 reprint of 1954 first edition. 2 vols, 2-tone cloth, 8vo,. xx, 400 + viii, 401-839 pp, 60 plates. 2,739 entries. A valuable reference source based on a splendid collection of 18th century works, particularly strong in literature and history, which was largely built up by individual acquisitions in the 1930s and 1940s.. Before preparation of this catalogue, Lord Rothschild sent a written proposal of his plan to no fewer than 21 bibliographers or other experts (Carter, Greg, Jackson, Keynes, Munby etc etc) to obtain their advice and suggestions for improvement. The result is a splendid work, with useful bibliographical detail on the 2,739 principal entries, including title-page transcriptions, collations, notes, provenance, references in bibliographies, etc. Good set.

Sobre Wykeham Books
We specialize chiefly in "books about books", the emphasis being on historical aspects of book collecting, production and distribution. A particular speciality is in bibliographies, of all subjects of interest to collectors, dealers and scholars, with several thousand bibliography titles in stock. Other strengths include extensive holdings of auction catalogues for book sales and a good selction of reference material on and facsimiles of illuminated manuscripts. We also have a special interest in rare material by or about Rudyard Kipling.
