First Edition. 135 pp., MSS. 3521-3500., 35 plates, original burgundy cloth, indices, light soiling to endpapers, otherwise copy clean and in mint condition -This is Volume 2 only of this 8 volume set. A catalogue of the extensive collection of Arabic manuscripts formed by Alfred Chester Beatty. The Chester Beatty is one of the premier sources for scholarship in both the Old and New Testaments and is home to one of the most significant collections of Western, Islamic and East & South East Asian artefacts. Sir Alfred Chester Beatty (7 February 1875 - 19 January 1968) was an American mining magnate, philanthropist and one of the most successful businessmen of his generation, who was given the epithet the "King of Copper" as a reference to his fortune. He became a naturalised British citizen in 1933, knighted in 1954 and made an honorary citizen of Ireland in 1957. He was a collector of African, Asian, European and Middle Eastern manuscripts, rare printed books, prints and objets d'art. Upon his move to Dublin in 1950 he established the Chester Beatty Library on Shrewsbury Road to house his collection; it opened to the public in 1954.
