From the introduction to catalogue 665: "In compiling this Catalogue we have separated the Armorial or Association items from the definitely decorative bindings. In some cases the two classes may overlap but they are really distinct in character. To describe a binding in words alone can never do full justice to its worth and nearly all have therefore been illustrated. In each case the size has been added as the illustrations in themselves might be misleading some showing the bindings full size and others greatly reduced. We do not lay claim to a complete survey of the binder's art in England from the sixteenth to the twentieth centuries but the followtng examples would certainly occupy a worthy place in any specialist library or form a solid foundation on which to build a representative collection." Contents: Armorial Bindings items 1-28; Decorative Bindings 16th-17th century 29-36; Embroidered and needlework Bindings 37-47; Books bound by Samuel Mearne Royal Binder to Charles II or in the Mearne style 48-63; Eighteenth Century 64-83; Nineteenth Century 84-86 Twentieth Century 87-94.

Best.-Nr. 61096London: Maggs Bros. Ltd. 50 Berkeley Square January 1946 - February 1951. 7 volumes. Small 8vo. A complete set of Maggs' "English Literature prior to 1800" catalogue in original pictorial wrappers reproducing an illustration from the Latin edition of Sir Thomas More's "Utopia" published at Basle in 1518. Some light wear generally very good. "The present catalogue is the first of a new Series devoted to English Literature prior to 1800. The shortage of paper makes the production of our larger catalogues an impossibility until more normal conditions prevail and the shortage of printing operatives renders the dates of publication uncertain. It is hoped however to issue succeeding numbers at three-monthly intervals and we trust that even in this new guise they may not be found without interests and attraction." London: Maggs Bros.
