1895 Winsor Catalogue, in Original State
Chapman, S.H. & H. CATALOGUE OF THE MAGNIFICENT COLLECTION OF COINS OF THE UNITED STATES FORMED BY THE LATE RICHARD B. WINSOR, ESQ., PROVIDENCE, R.I. Philadelphia: Davis & Harvey, December 16-17, 1895. 4to, original gilt-printed white paper covers. (2), 93, (1) pages; 1353 lots. Only very slight signs of wear; nearly fine. Adams 47. An important sale, rated A by Adams: "Carolina elephant ?¢. 3 Granby varieties. Silver center 1¢. Gem silver. Clover leaf 1¢, superb copper. AU 1822 10¢." Most significant for American colonial, silver and copper coins. Large-paper Chapman catalogues are rarely encountered in their original paper covers, as the combination of their oversized format and relatively weak spine did not contribute to their longevity. This is a happy exception. Davis 190. Ex Kolbe Sale 99, lot 155; ex Cardinal Collection Library.
(Estimate: $100)
