Hardback. Condition: Fine. Second Impression. THOMAS J. WISE Centenary Studies. William B. Todd (Editor). University of Texas Press, Austin. 1959 Second Impression 128pp Hardback This book is in fine condition tight, white and bright. There are two small neat signatures to the f.e.p. A dustwrapper is not present. Thomas James Wi…se (7 October 1859 -13 May 1937) was a bibliophile who collected the Ashley Library, now housed by the British Library, and later became known for the literary forgeries and stolen documents that were resold or authenticated by him. In 1934 his reputation was damaged by the publication of "An Enquiry into the Nature of Certain Nineteenth Century Pamphlets" by John Carter and Graham Pollard. This proved that a large number of rare first edition pamphlets from 19th century authors which depended solely on Wise's published works for their authenticity were fakes. Wise and a fellow bibliophile Harry Buxton Forman had been involved in the fabrication and sale of many of the same pamphlets to collectors. This small collection of essays includes contributions from both John Carter and Graham Pollard where they outline further proof obtained as a result of investigations made subsequent to their book published in 1934.
