Gardiner, Alan H. (Henderson).
ONNOPhRIS. (Miscellanea Academica Berolinensia).
Royal quarto. Pp. 44-53. Original printed wrappers; inscription. In good condition. ~ First edition thus. Sonderdruck aus Miscellanea Academica Berolinensia, 1950. Sir Alan Henderson Gardiner (1879-1963). AEB 1316. ~[Librarium of The Hague offers the largest and finest collection of Egyptological offprint monographs in the rare book market. With the acquisition in recent years of multiple Egyptological libraries (those of Prof. Herman te Velde; Prof. Mathieu Heerma van Voss, Prof. Baudouin van de Walle; Prof. Michel Malaise; Prof. Herman De Meulenaere; Egyptologist Jacobus Visser, and former Trustee of the Egypt Exploration Society, Stewart Dale White), we now hold several thousands of rare offprint monographs which were collected over many years by these scholars. Very limited in number when originally issued and fragile by nature, most are by now practically extinct and the scarce survivors are much sought after. We took upon ourselves to collate, catalogue, and identify each item in accordance with Beinlich-Seeber or Annual Egyptological Bibliography, in the hope that this collection will prove useful for scholars and collectors alike. Your queries are most welcome]
