Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Book-Prices Current, Vol. 12: A Record of the Prices at Which Books Have Been Sold at Auction, From December, 1897, to the Close of the Season, 1898 There is no question that the sales reported in this volume are the most important that have occupied the attention of the various auctioneers for at least ten years, while the prices realised have, in many instances, been phenomenal. Just at the moment there is no new thing in the Book-world to chronicle; no unusual demand for the works of this or that author, or for books of a certain class or kind. Book-buyers appear to be taking matters calmly at present, and in my opinion this volume of Book-Prices Current discloses the market in a state of quiescence, a remark it is not necessary to qualify even in the face of the Ashburnham Sale, where prices ruled high, as they always do when large and important libraries find their way into the sale-rooms. Books of the special kind affected by the late Earl of Ashburnham are just those which never fail to attract; the prices realised for such works are always large, since the demand for them is universal and their scarcity proverbial.
