More Shakespeare up for auction!

Dear American Shakespeare Scholars:

The major book auction that Francis Wahlgren mentioned during our visit to Christie's is scheduled for 5 December 2006.
This auction is a sale of Fine Printed Books and Manuscripts, including Americana. (The selection is breath-taking!)
No First (or Third) Folios this time around, but there is a lovely 19th century Shakespeare set on offer.
(And an early edition Alice under a $1000., which would make a remarkable Christmas present for a certain professor you all know!) ;)

Auction details:

5 December 2006, 10:00 am
20 Rockefeller Plaza, New York

Viewing:
1 December 10:00 am - 5:00 pm

Perhaps -- we might consider a quick viewing trip after class on Friday, 1 December...

Hope you all had a restful Thanksgiving!

Cheers,
ASH
