Catalogue Extracts from the Martin Library
[Catalogues]. NUMISMATIC SALE CATALOGUE EXTRACTS FEATURING AMERICAN COLONIALS. Large box containing approximately 245 extracts from auction catalogues, where Syd Martin kept the pages in which he was interested and disposed of the rest. In some cases, only a few pages were kept, while at times most of the original catalogue is present. Arranged chronologically, and mostly from the period of Martin's personal collecting (with some gaps in which he relinquished the practice). Some with annotations or prices realized lists. Generally very good or so. An attractive group for the colonial specialist, with most of the irrelevant pages discarded. Firms here present include: American Numismatic Rarities, Baldwin's, Bowers & Merena, Bowers & Ruddy, Christie's, Classical Numismatic Group, Coin Galleries, Early American Numismatic Auctions, Ira & Larry Goldberg, Heritage, Robert Hughes, Kagin's, Kingswood Galleries, Kurt Krueger, Joseph Lepczyk, NASCA, Jay Parrino, Pine Tree, Rarcoa, Spink America, Stack's, Stack's Bowers, Hans M.F. Schulman, Kevin Vinton (EAC), plus some sold with additional firms. (The name of some firms varies.) The earliest catalogue extract here present is from Hans Schulman's April 26–28, 1951 sale of material from Burdette Johnson et al.
