EPUB

tions of clubs and societies are usually under the name of the society; but, occasionally, publications of some of the minor societies will be found under the name of their author. Different books by the same author are arranged alphabetically by titles, and different editions of the same book are arranged according to date of publication. The autographs are, of course, arranged alphabetically by authors.

The date given under each lot is that of the first date of the sale. The full period covered may be found by referring to the chronological list of sales following this preface. The number in parentheses is the original lot number in the sale catalogue. Books in American auction rooms are sold by the volume, but the prices here given are for the lot, not per volume.

In the index the books are classified by subjects. We have tried to make it especially full in American local history. As many collectors are interested especially in books relating to certain states and towns, local histories have been put under the state and afterward under the town. The names of states have been set in black-faced type and those of the towns in small capitals.

The abbreviations used in describing the autographs are well known to all collectors. A. L. S. is Autograph Letter Signed; A. L. is Autograph Letter, unsigned; L. S. is Letter Signed, the signature only autographic; A. D. S. is Autograph Document Signed; D. S. is Document Signed.
