A selection of interesting references in need of binding.The collector of the Twin Leaf coins and books also became interesting in bookbinding as a hobby, and was quite skilled (see next lot). These volumes were bookbinding “projects” that were not completed due to the unfortunate onset of arthritis. Though not bound, they are meaningful numismatic references and still desirable. If a collector wished to do so, they could be easily bound, and as some of the preparatory work has been done, there would likely be a cost savings in restoring these works and making them shelf-worthy, handsome and readily usable:pstrongThe American Numismatic Society, New York. emAmerican Journal of Numismatics, 1919, Volume LIII, Part I/strong/em. This is the large format offprint from the AJN of Hillyer Ryder’s studies on Connecticut, Vermont and Massachusetts coins, later published under the title, The State Coinages of New England. Though unbound, the chipped covers have been reinforced in preparation for binding and the interior signatures are in excellent condition. Minor penciled notes inside the back cover. strongStrobridge, William H. emA Valuable Collection of Coins and Medals, June 1876/strong/em. Fine, but disbound. This is the 1876 Parmelee sale, being primarily an offering of a collection he purchased intact and then sold at auction, with some additions. A priced copy, with the sale days written in ink on the cover. Slight aging to the covers, but quite clean and it would bind beautifully. strongNew Netherlands Coin Company. emForty-First Catalog, September 26, 1953/strong/em. Disbound with some tape staining on the covers. This was Willard Blaisdell’s copy of sale, which included the Hillyer Ryder collection of large cents. A few pricing and purchaser notes by Blaisdell are within. With original prices realized list. strongNew Netherlands Coin Company & B.A. Seaby. em2nd Auction Sale, an important collection of Superb and Early Large Cents, November 1973/strong/em. This important and well-plated sale included highlights from the R.E. “Ted” Naftzger Collection of large cents, with many exceptional pieces. It is a must for any serious large cent collector. Disbound, but clean and with the original prices realized list. (Total: 4 volumes)From the Twin Leaf Collection of Connecticut & Massachusetts Coppers.
