See More... Einstein, Milton I.D. & Max A. Goldstein COLLECTORS' MARKS.
Mansfield Centre Martino Publishing 2007 large 8vo. cloth. (xiv), 128, x, 34, (3) pages, with 50 additional pages of plates.
Reprint of the 1918 edition which was limited to 300 numbered copies. The first part (Coll. Marks), by Louis Fagan of the British Museum, first appeared in 1883 and contains 671 "marks" for book owners (individuals or institutions): Signatures, initials, monograms, stamps, stars, crosses, coats of arms, intertwined forms and "other marks and devices," all reproduced in facsimile. The accompanying list indicates, to the extent known, the collector or owner to whom the mark refers and gives information on the sale of the collection to which the mark pertains. Fagan identifies about three-fourths of the marks with regard to ownership, with auction information for perhaps one-half. With index. A following "supplement" lists fifty variants of the marks already reproduced. The last part ("new contributions") is an addition by the editors of this edition, Milton Einstein and Max Goldstein, and lists 205 additional marks, many of them from America (e.g. M. Cassatt, J.P. Morgan), following the format of part one, although a smaller portion of marks are identified.

See More... (Hunting) De Uhagon, D. Francisco and D. Enrique De Leguina ESTUDIOS BIBLIOGRÁFICOS: LA CAZA, DATOS REUNIDOS.
(Mansfield Centre, CT Martino Publishing 2001) 8vo. cloth xi, (i), 114 pages
Facsimile edition of an early bibliography on Spanish hunting and sporting books that was originally printed in Madrid in an edition of only 100 copies (Besterman 5880). Each of the 672 items on the subject were printed before 1888 and each entry includes full author-title information along with brief annotations. De Leguina also authored the definitive bibliography on Spanish fencing books. This basic bibliography of sporting books is so rare that not even the famous Jeanson sale of 1987 offered a copy, and only one auction record was found for this item in the U.S. in the last twenty-five years.
Price: $ 50.00 other currencies Order nr. 69015
