24 x 14.5 cm. xxvi, 254 pages. Illustrated. Cloth, with dust jacket. Text in English. In very good condition. See picture Ernest J. Wessen was one of the legendary rare bookmen of the mid-twentieth century, and his letters, like his famous catalogs, Midland Notes, are a treasure of Americana. Wessen's anecdotes of the chase, his… wry comments upon collectors and fellow dealers (and, indeed, the world at large), his alternating moods of genial tolerance and peppery impatience with the scouts who brought him books and pamphlets . all combine to give a wonderfully informative, useful, and fascinating compendium of rare book lore - just as the title promises. Wessen's important role in building the famous Streeter collection is richly documented in the scores of his letters to Streeter that occupy a central place in this fascinating anthology of a man who was not only a great and inspired bookman, but an extraordinary human being. As Yeatman Anderson III, Archivist for the Cincinnati Public Library in Wessen's day, wrote u201cA study of Wessen's letters would provide the best course in Americana anyone could ask for.u201d Matthews has edited the text, written the introduction, and supplied footnotes for this bountiful compilation of letters that are historically and bibliographically informative, wonderfully insightful, and filled with lively tales of bookish adventure. 640g.
