Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This fascinating book looks at the early 19th-century phenomenon known as 'Bibliomania,' in which wealthy collectors competed fiercely to acquire rare books and manuscripts. The author describes two major sales from this period, one in 1812 and one in 1834, which saw collections of pre…viously unseen value come to auction. The book delves into the motivations of these collectors, explores the complex world of book collecting, and notes the decline in interest at the time the author was writing. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of books, collecting, and the curious characters who populate it. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.

Brown boards [perhaps later?], printed title-labels to front board and spine {spine-label perhaps a later addition?] 8vo, 23 cm, 102 pp, errata slip tipped-in at p17. Dibdin's survey of the state of the book trade in Bibliophobia came against the backdrop of his own difficult financial circumstances. The particular spur to publi…cation was the ludicrously low prices realized at a sale by Evans on 19 August 1831 of some 13 manuscripts of Scott's novels: hoping to improve on an offer of £1000 for the manuscripts, the owners consigned them to auction but realized little over £300. Dibdin laments this and numerous other exmples of shockingly low prices, attributing the state of the market not just to a shortage of money but also altered tastes influenced by the impending Reform Bill and the cholera. Dibdin nevertheless manages to end on a note of optimism, certain that the tide will turn: it did, of course, but not in his own lifetime. Presentation Copy, inscribed by Dibdin on a front endpaper: " - Morgan Esq., From the Author". Loosely inserted is an autograph letter of Dibdin, signed, to a Mr Nugee at 20 St James Street proposing to call on him to collect "two precious documents" (written on first 2 pages of a single sheet folded once, further folded for posting and stamped with penny postage paid and remnants of wax seal). Francis Nugee "tailor, &c." is listed at 20 St. James's Street, Pall Mall in the 1843 London Post Office directory, and other correspondence exists showing him to have been Dibdin's tailor. Small circular blindstamp on front free endpaper "Ex Bibliotheca Dr Detlev Mauss", partly cutting the leaf. Slight wear to head of spine, minor marks to boards, some foxing throughout, otherwise Good.

Contact seller5-star seller8vo, pp. 102; erratum slip inserted prior to B1; half green morocco, joints and extremities rubbed; a good, sound copy. Jackson 82: "Mercurius Rusticus and Cato Parvus were pseudonyms used by Dibdin in the Bibliomania. Owing to the agitation regarding Reform, and perhaps also because of cholera epidemics, the rare book market ap…peared to Dibdin to be very low indeed. His diatribe was touched off by the absurdly inadequate prices that the original manuscripts of the Waverley Novels fetched at Evans' sale, 19 August 1831. Dibdin's natural optimism made him prophesy that the depression in books would not last long . One hundred copies of this book printed on large paper were issued.".
