Description | 'I have received this afternoon a letter from Sothebys [regarding the early printed book sale of books from the Arudel / Norfolk library collection], of which I enclose a copy. As I promised to let Dr Allen know what price they put on the [Willibald Pirckheimer] books I have sent him the following telegram:- "Sothebys name £2700 for 46 lots, excluding No. 62."' |
