Excerpt from American Book-Prices Current, Vol. 2: A Record of Books, Manuscripts, and Autographs Sold at Auction in New York, Boston, Philadelphia, and Cincinnati, From September 1, 1895, to September 1, 1896, With the Prices RealizedThe chronological arrangement, in which the books of one sale are grouped together, gives a better idea of the character of the collee tions sold, and this, to a limited extent, is a help toward estimating the true market value of any book. But the obvious advantage of having all copies of the same book together, where the eye can at once run from one quotation to another, and compare condition and price, more than compensates for losing sight of the characteristics of each sale as a whole. The trouble and annoyance of constantly referring to the Index is also avoided.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
