cloth. Wanley, Humfrey (illustrateur). 8vo. cloth. xcvi,208; (iv),209-518 pages. Two volumes. Very good condition. From the introduction: "Humfrey Wanley's Diary or Journal, here printed for the first time in its entirety, was kept by him while Library-Keeper in the service of Robert Harley . It records the visits of, or to, booksellers and dealers, and negotiations with them; lists of manuscripts and printed books offered for sale, purchased, or received by gift; conversations with various people about library business; the vists of scholars and others to the Library, either as students there or as sightseers, and so on. It is in fact a record of the day-to-day business of a working librarian and is in no sense, therefore, a diary such as Pepys's or Evelyn's: apart from occasional references to his healther, Wanley's allusions to personal affairs are few ." Wanley was librarian to the Harleys; the diary is a very interesting look at collecting and bookselling during the early 18th century. From the reference library of Philadelphia Rare Books & Manuscripts with their bookplate included.

First edition, 2 volumes, 8vo, pp. xcv, [1], 207, [1]; [4], 209-518, [2]; 2 frontispieces, 1 a portrait, the other a facsimile of his handwriting; generally fine in original blue cloth, gilt-lettered spine. With the bookplates of Jacob Chernofsky, and ex-Seven Gables Bookshop. Humfrey Wanley is the subject of all of Chapter V in David Douglas's English Scholars (L., 1939): "In 1705 . there was published as a supplementary volume to the Thesaurus of Hickes, a folio which bore Wanley's name on its title-page and which was the crowning achievement of his career [and was] the most valuable section of the Thesaurus. It later acquired fortuitously an additional importance from its detailed description of many manuscripts which perished in the fire which damaged the Cotton Library in 1731. And from the quality of its scholarship and the extent of its range it retains its value as an indispensable work of reference, and is today almost as useful as when it was written.".
