RARE This esteemed collection, notable for its extensive range of early Americana and Mexican publications, was amassed over a period exceeding 40 years by the journalist and publisher Andrade in Mexico. Initially intended to establish the core of the Imperial Library of Mexico, this ambitious project was disrupted by the onset of the Mexican Revolution. Consequently, the collection was clandestinely transported out of Mexico and ultimately auctioned off in 1869. Seller Inventory # 47
