Strobridge, W.H. CATALOGUE OF A LARGE COLLECTION OF AMERICAN ALMANACKS, EARLY PRINTED BOOKS, AND A MISCELLANEOUS COLLECTION OF BOOKS, PAMPHLETS, AND OLD NEWSPAPERS, PRINCIPALLY AMERICAN. THE PROPERTY OF FERDINAND I. ILSLEY, ESQ., OF NEWARK, N.J. New York: Leavitt, Feb. 10-11, 1876. 8vo, original printed wraps. 36 pages; 521 + 81 lots. Spine a bit weak, with covers loosening; very good or better. A mostly non-numismatic sale by Strobridge, and a genuine rarity (probably for that very reason). In fact, it appears to be the first solo copy we’ve offered since at least the late 1980s. Adams 25.
