A Dozen Different Schulman Sales
Schulman, J. AUCTION CATALOGUES AND FIXED-PRICE LISTS, 1924 TO 1959. Amsterdam. Twelve sale catalogues present, including: 17 juin 1924; Catalogue 80, mars 1929; 19 janvier 1931); 8 juin 1931; 14 décembre 1931; 25 octobre 1937; 29 March 1949; List 101/256, 1955; 30 January 1956; 22 mai 1956; 4 Maart 1958; 9 March 1959; and the firm's 1949 reprint of their 23 février 1914 H.T. Grogan sale. Dates given are starting dates for multi-day sales. Varying formats and size, most in original printed wraps or card covers; one sale lacking covers. Occasional pricing or annotation. Generally very good, though a few are otherwise in poorer condition. A small but interesting group of Schulman catalogues, offering an enormous range of ancient, medieval and modern coins and medals. The Schulman firm began with Jacques (Jacob) Schulman (1849–1914), who was the primary cataloguer during his lifetime. His sons Maurits (1876–1943) and André (1877–1936) continued the firm and constituted the second generation. Their respective sons Hans (1913–1990) and Jacques (1906–1991) were the third generation. Laurens and Robert, sons of Jacques, were the fourth generation. These earlier catalogues are truly remarkable for the wide variety of coins offered and the expertise with which the firm handled them. Notable catalogues here present include the June 1924 second Vierordt sale (Clain-Stefanelli 1785, Grierson 288, Spring 684), the January 1931 sale (Spring 692), the June 1931 sale (Spring 693), and the March 1949 Drijfhout van Hooff sale (Spring 703).
