Rare Books and Incunabula
Sale Code: FB1A
Ranging from extremely rare 15th and 16th century texts to signed first editions of Ayn Rand, this sale encompasses 6 centuries of man's drive to record and share information. The topics are varied, and include religious and historic texts such as St. Bonaventure’s Pauper’s Bible and History of Alexander the Great, both 15th century; a 1793 version of Adam Smith’s The Wealth of Nations; John Dryden’s translation of the works of Virgil; Sir Walter Raleigh’s History of the World, and The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire by Edward Gibbons. Many of the texts are very desirable first editions, and all fit seamlessly into the classic western literary canon.
Works like these are held in great libraries throughout the world; they influenced the Founding Fathers in their creation of our great nation, and helped form the foundation for the Western world as we know it today.
