Description
CARLANDER, CARL MAGNUS. Swedish library and ex-libris. Notes by C. M. Carlander. Others revised and added 50 illustrations to the edition. I-IV:1-2. Stockholm, Förlagskatiebolaget Iduna, 1904.
8th. 248 x 160 mm. Posters and other ex-libris illustrations.
Light brown half-morocco bindings with rich gold decorated spines, green leather labels, blue ballpoints with double gold lines, marbled cuts and bound covers. Gösta Mittag-Leffler's ex-libris. 6 volumes.
Not collated in detail.
Almquist 2613. The first edition was published in 1889-94. The work describes public libraries, lending libraries and private book collections in Sweden from the Middle Ages to 1900, and concludes with a list of Swedish bookbinders through the ages. The work also contains a lot of biographical information about librarians, book collectors and bookbinders.
Gösta Mittag-Leffler's collection of mathematical writings is considered one of the world's foremost. As a curiosity, it can be mentioned that Mittag-Leffler partially financed his book collecting by buying and selling a large holding in Idun's printing house, which printed this second edition.
