Volume One
VICTORIAN YELLOWBACKS & PAPERBACKS, 1849-1905. VOLUME I. GEORGE ROUTLEDGE.
Topp, Chester W.
This is the first volume in what will be a multi volume set devoted to a bibliography of over 25 publishers of Victorian yellowbacks and paperbacks. It represents an expansion of the work of Michael Sadleir and the catalogue of the Robert Wolff collection. Includes information on the first English and first American editions along with other important editions, a section of color illustrations, and title and author indices. An incredible work obviously produced by a loving collector.

THOMAS SHORT AND THE FIRST BOOK PRINTED IN CONNECTICUT.
by Johnson, Foster M.
Limited to 50 numbered copies, being a Keepsake for the Columbiad Club (Not in Leaf Book - Chalmers). The booklet provides a biography of the printer, Thomas Short, information on the printing history of this 1708 imprint, and a six-page facsimile. Loosely inserted in a pocket is an actual leaf from the "Saybrook Platform" of 1710 taken from Harold Hugo's defective and broken-up copy. Hugo printed the collotype reproductions in this book. Not in the recently published bibliography of leaf books (Disbound and Dispersed, distributed by Oak Knoll Press for the Caxton Club). An extremely scarce book.
