GARRETT AT EVERGREEN HOUSE
Larry Mitchell writes: "My thanks to Leonard Augsburger
for his informative article on Perry Fuller in the Spring 2004
issue of The Asylum.In a footnote on p.57, Leonard seems to suggest that the
title "John Work Garrett and his Library at Evergreen House"
is an "unpublished manuscript." In fact, this title was privately
printed in Baltimore in 1944 by Schneidereith & Sons. My
copy (75 pp., ill.) is bound in gilt-stamped light blue cloth with
a dark blue cloth backstrip. Limitation is unknown. The work
goes into some detail regarding the titles in Garrett's library,
but there is NO mention of numismatic titles -- the focus is
very much on what modern booksellers term "high spot" book
collecting (e.g., 14th-15th century manuscript horae [Hours
of the Virgin], a nice run of incunabula [western works
printed from movable type before 1500 BCE],
Shakespeare in the earliest quartos and folios, etc.)."- 2004-07-18
