From a private collection of Margaret Armstrong cover designs to Kurt Vonnegut true first editions to scarce early books on travels through America, this auction offers an amazing diversity of unusual, collectible and eclectic titles. A scarce and desirable 1738 third printing of Gulliver?s Travels, a rare signed copy of James Malone?s ?The Chickasaw Nation,? a one-of-a-kind and historic journal of over 600 early American Federation of Labor letters (1884-87) all add to the tantalizing array of choice items included in this sale. Civil War, World War II, architecture, history, leather-bound, early comic books and over three dozen Swann auction catalogs are just a taste of what is to be found throughout this catalog.
