Prices of Rare Books.

A careful perusal of auction
Prices of Books illustrates the great
advance in prices Of certain classes
of books and the decline of certain
others. .v
The most remarkable advance in
the forty years covered is to be shown
in two classes Of books-What is
technically called Americana and
first editions in immaculate condition
of what the world has accepted as ia
nous books. ~
Another kind of book has shown
great advance during this period, and
that is technically called provenance,
because it formerly belonged to
distinguished person or was a pre-
sentation copy by famous author.
The most notable decline is evident
in what may be termed typographi-
cal monuments, the Greek and Latin
classics and books in poor condition
printed at famous presses. Formerly
a fifteenth century book, an Aldus,
an Elzevir, commanded respectable
price because they were from these
famous presses, but now it is .neces-
sary to be collector that these
should be unusual copies.-Outlook.
