Woodward, W. Elliot. CATALOGUE OF THE COLLECTION OF COINS AND MEDALS, FORMED BY HENRY W. HOLLAND, OF BOSTON, TOGETHER WITH THE CHADBOURNE COLLECTION OF STORE CARDS....

Very good or so. Adams 19, the first Woodward catalogue actually catalogued by Woodward since the 1867 Mickley sale. A massive and significant catalogue. At over 4200 lots, that it was hand-priced is remarkable in itself. Adams rated A overall: "Most extensive U.S. medals ever offered."
