Certainly one of the most curious, interesting, and valuable collections of early English literature, particularly as relating to Shakespeare, ever sold. The prices obtained at this sale for the first four folio editions of Shakespeare, as also for the very rare first quarto editions of his plays, have never been surpassed. This sale marks an era for the sale and the prices of early English literature.
