INTRODUCTION.

1895

In presenting our new Catalogue of Americana, we would call special attention to the fact that the items are . nearly all out of print, and that in most cases a single copy only can be supplied. An early selection is therefore desirable.

In this Catalogue will be found something to interest all students of American History as well as Collectors of Americana. The intelligent librarian will recognize at a glance that it offers an opportunity for further completing certain lines, or strengthening his Americana Departments, thus saving valuable time hunting up, and sending out lists of wants to agents and others; the small returns from which are always a source of mortification to the librarian and disappointing to the inquirer. It includes several important private collections, as well as purchases in this country and abroad during the last two years, the time when our last Americana Catalogue appeared.

The books are in good, second-hand condition and in all cases the prices will be found VERY MODERATE.
