    Great! Pages 8-50 must contain a nice little "must have" library covering large cents. Are there any books in that list that surprise you?

    I am not so much suprised by anything as I am awed by such a wonderful collection orf books and if such a collection was to be offered today I'd bid my brains out - I am curious about about 2 lots (138 and 140) - these lots are respectively the limited editions of the Robinson Brown and Jack Robinson Superior Galleries sale - limited to 10 copies in brown full morocco, raised bands, spine and upper cover lettered and decorated in gilt, marbled endsheets with brown pebbled slipcase - each lot was listed at $4,500 and according to the bound-in PRL neither lot sold - I wonder what these books are worth today?
