Soft cover. Etat : Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. 144 pp. Original wrappers. Very Good. Lots 1-174 were auctioned the first day, lots 175-331 the second day. Wallis, P. & R., Newton and Newtoniana, 5.601. 'For various reasons, Viscount Lymington offered the Portsmouth Papers for sale in the summer of 1936 - an event which broke up the archive but finally revealed the full extent of Newton's interests in alchemy and unorthodox theology. Their sale took place in Sotheby's on 13 and 14 July. The task of organising a new catalogue of these papers in an extremely compressed period fell to J.C. Taylor, Sotheby's Chief Cataloguer in the department of Books and Manuscripts. . . . Taylor's catalogue is in many ways a magnificent achievement, especially given the intense pressure of time he was working under, and for over six decades it has been the most significant resource for scholars attempting to keep track of individual items sold at the sale. The event itself was overshadowed by the equally remarkable sale of Henry Oppenheimer's collection of Impressionist art at Christie's, and the entire collection raised what must be considered the relatively miserly sum of just over £9,000 -- substantially less than the $18,000 paid by an unknown buyer for a single sheet from one of the 'Paradoxical Questions' manuscripts at an auction in 2001. Having been alerted to the sale only at the last minute by his brother, the economist John Maynard Keynes failed to realise the full significance of what was on offer until the sale had been largely completed. Having realised it, he immediately set about buying up Newton manuscripts from both individuals and dealers, the most notable of whom were Maggs Brothers of London. . . . Keynes soon found himself in competition for many lots with the Jewish scholar and businessman Abraham Yahuda, a man of broad learning who was especially interested in the theological material. Though also fascinated by Newton's religiosity, Keynes ultimately concentrated on building up the alchemical papers, in some cases exchanging theological papers he had acquired for alchemical ones owned by Yahuda. Keynes generously bequeathed his collection to King's College, Cambridge at his death in 1946. The story of the Yahuda archive is more complicated. Believing that a history of Old Testament chronology composed by someone like Newton might still have value, and no doubt intrigued by the comparatively low status accorded to Christ in Newton's version of Christianity, Yahuda strove for a unified collection of Newton's theological material, though he sold or attempted to sell a number of the manuscripts he had assembled. Following his death, the fate of the archive was decided only after a number of disputes. The papers were eventually given to the Jewish National and University Library (now National Library of Israel), and having been ably catalogued by David Castillejo, they became generally accessible to scholars at the end of the 1960s' ('The Sotheby Sale', Newton Project Web site).
