BOGVENNEN, AARBOG FOR BOGKUNST OG BOGHISTORIE.
6 volumes.
Six years of the Danish annual The Bibliophile: vols. 15-20 (1926-1931) of the original series The Bibliophile, which began in 1893, had by the 1920's lost interest in book crafts, and deals more with collecting and bibliophile issues, becoming rather more international in outlook. In 1926, reports on Danish Book auctions are added. There is more coverage of libraries and collections/ collectors, and of current book illustration. The reports on the activities of the Association for Book Crafts (Forening...) cease. The historical and retrospective articles continue, of course. Three volumes have cracked hinges. 1928 lacks the spine covering.
