Notes: The Sadleir-Black collection originated from the efforts of bibliographer and collector, Michael Sadleir, who built up a considerable Gothic library from rare and second hand bookshops. His holdings were considerably expanded with the addition of shilling shockers and multipart Gothic novels from the collection of Arthur Hutchinson. Book collector Robert Kerr Black further refined and expanded the the collection after Sadleir's switch of interest to Victorian fiction.
