NOTE.
The books from the Library of Dr. William Hirsch of New York which
are here catalogued are of a very unusual character. It is seldom that
in a single sale so many items of Incunabula appear, or so many ancient
Manuscripts, or so many volumes that appeal particularly to the classi-
eal scholar. Dr. Hirsch gathered his treasures from all countries and
availed himself here of the rare opportunities afforded by the sale of
the Hurst, Poor, Hawkins, Crane, Eames, Hoe, Borden, and other im-
portant collections.
Seven Books of Hours of the Fifteenth Century are in this sale, with
beautiful miniatures and initials in gold and colors, and there are many
curious and important Manuscripts in Chinese, Japanese, Hebrew,
Arabic, and Persian.
Fine bindings, books on art in great variety, Goupil’s biographies with
colored frontispieces, ancient and modern history, and the works of
Diirer extra-illustrated with 286 portraits and views are also offered.
Searce works from the presses of Aldus and Elzevir; a remarkable
collection of the classics; early books on the Reformation by Erasmus,
Luther, Calvin, and others; the first edition of the Nuremberg Chronicle
in German (printed in 1493); early editions of the Bible, including that
printed in Venice by Harlbrun in 1480; Antoninus, printed in Venice
in 1476, Jenson’s edition of 1479, and that printed by Speier in 1487;
St. Augustin, printed at Louvain in 1482; Chrysostomus’s Homelia,
printed at Rome in 1470 (the first book printed by Lauer), and the
Epistles of Hieronymus, 1480, are literary treasures which all collectors
value highly.
