In den WarenkorbHardcover. Zustand: Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. Frontispiece, 301 pp. Original cloth. Very Good. 'Abraham Simon Wolf Rosenbach (July 22, 1876 July 1, 1952) was an American collector, scholar, and seller of rare books and manuscripts. In London, where he frequently attended the auctions at Sotheby's, he was known as 'The T…error of the Auction Room.' In Paris, he was called 'Le Napoléon des Livres', which translates to 'The Napoleon of Books.' Many others referred to him as 'Dr. R.', a 'Robber Baron' and 'the Greatest Bookdealer in the World'. Rosenbach is credited with popularizing the collecting of American literature at a time when only European literature was considered collectible. He also advanced the idea of book collecting as a means of investment and published several articles and books to increase interest in rare books and manuscripts. He bought and sold numerous items throughout his life, including eight Gutenberg Bibles, more than 30 Shakespeare's First Folios, a copy of the Bay Psalm Book and the manuscripts of Ulysses and Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. The lifetime total of his purchases is estimated to be worth more than $75,000,000 in 2019. . . . In 1946, a book made by thirty of Rosenbach's friends, entitled To Dr. R, featured a series of literary and bibliographical essays written in honor of his 70th birthday' (Wikipedia).
