Tight and internally fine with just the slightest general binding wear. Nicolas Barker provides the foreword for this celebrated catalogue -- and this copy bears on front flyleaf a fine decorative-edged bookplate signed boldly by him in his lovely calligraphic script.

O'More actually Richard Haven Moore 1929-2008 electrified the rare book world when he appeared seemingly out of nowhere and bought lavishly and widely the end coming as quickly as the beginning with this high-profile auction. For a thorough treatment read chapter six of Nicholas Basbane's 1995 bestseller "A Gentle Madness" which profiles O'More's bizarre bibliophilia. Laid in in clear sleeve is an addendum leaf "Auction Estimates" pages and copy of 5pp fax of handwritten prices realized. Superb copy of the catalogue of one of the strangest collections ever.
