Book Description
Excerpt from American Book-Prices Current, 1899: A Record of Books, Manuscripts, and Autographs Sold at Auction in New York, Boston, and Philadelphia, From September 1, 1898, to September 1, 1899, With the Prices Realized; Compiled From the Auctioneers' Catalogues As will be seen by this list, the number of sales held in New York much exceeds those held elsewhere. In justice to Boston and Philadelphia we should, however, state that while their sales are in progress they generally hold two sessions a day, while in New York there is rarely more than a single session. The issues of the Kelmscott Press have shown, during the year, a more remarkable advance in price than any other class of books. In previous volumes of our compilation these books have been entered alphabetically under the author's name and distributed throughout the volume. They are now, however, 'all entered under Kelmscott Press. We have also added records of sales of the same books in London at several important sales which have taken place during the year.

Book Description
Excerpt from American Book-Prices Current: A Records of Books, Manuscripts, and Autographs Sold at Auction in New York, Boston, and Philadelphia, From September 1, 1990, to September 1, 1901, With the Prices Realized HE auction season of 1900 and 1901, the sales of which are recorded in this volume Of American book-prices Current, without question exceeds in importance any previous season, both in number of sales and value of books dispersed. We record lots of books and autographs, which is a considerable increase over any previous season since our compilation was begun. While our record aims to show all important books and manu scripts selling for over three dollars for the lot, a good many items, necessarily, are thrown out, to keep the volume within reasonable size. Current books which can still be had of the publishers are generally excluded, and in cases where remainders are being worked off by throwing Copies into numerous sales, a selection only is shown. In other cases, also, where more than three or four Copies of the same book have been sold, a representative selection only is generally introduced. Some other items selling at about our limit, more especially books in foreign languages, as well as occasional cases where the catalogue description was too meagre to identify the book, have been excluded. Taking it for granted that this condensation is uniform through the seven volumes of our work, it is interesting to see the growth Of this particular department Of the book business in America. Our initial volume for'1895 recorded only 6025 lots 1896 reached 741 I 1897, 8562; 1898, 7547; 1899, 8859; 1900, 9662; and 1901, The growth has been constant with the exception Of the single set back in 1898.
