MONOGRAPHS . [Hague, The) Fr. Imhoof-Blumer, Griechische Münzen in dem Königlichen Münzkabinet im Haag und in Anderen Sammlungen. Berlin 1876. 8vo (16.5x24cm), 85 pages, plates VI-IX from original ZfN III (1876). Full tan leather, spine with raised bands, cover panel with brown printed titles, plates hinged in. Very Good.
A note from BCD: This book reveals how attracted Imhoof-Blumer was to the early Arcadian League issues; he devotes a whole plate of fine photography to the gems of the series. Just as anything written by him deserves our respect and admiration, so this work has been lovingly treated without any concern about excessive cost. The binding, impossible to duplicate today, transforms it to a work of art.
Schätzung: EUR 200
