Rosenbach, A. S. W. A Book Hunter’s Holiday<\/b>. Houghton Mifflin, 1936. First edition hardback, #747 of 760 signed, numbered copies, a Very Good+ copy with a bit of wear to the cloth and a large sticker ghost on the inside front cover, with some sheets still uncut, sans dust jacket, presumably as issued (the trade edition had a dust jacket, but all online examples of the signed edition seem to lack the dust jacket), but lacking the slipcase. Essays on bookselling and collecting. Received as a Christmas gift from Dwight, and a companion volume for Books and Bidders<\/b><\/a>. <\/p>\n
