The selection features many items new to us or never before listed including two beautiful works by Grandville in the publisher's de luxe bindings, Aleister Crowley's Book of Thoth, and a fine livre d'artiste from the Allen Press. Also of note is a truly splendid first edition of Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations.
An unlikely band of travelers, published between 1478 and 2020.
