This ten volume set collects all of the catalogues of Abraham Simon Wolf Rosenbach (1876-1952). Rosenbach was rare book and manuscript expert, collector, and dealer based in Philadelphia. He popularized the idea of book collecting as a form of investing and legitimized American literature among the collecting community. There are 74 catalogues here spanning the years from 1904 to 1951. Hardbound in blue cloth with gilt lettering and book designs on cover and spine.
