1971014230no place: Privately Published 1971. Very Good condition. Square tight. Sharp corners. NOT a remainder. Pages are clean and crisp. NO underlining. NO highlighting. NO margin notes. Collected here for the first time in one hardcover volume are these 7 important auction catalogues which were originally catalogued by Barney Bluestone. This edition limited to 1000 numbered copies has a new historical introduction by William Anton and Morey Perlmutter. It also features a complete 45-page listing of the actual prices realized for all 7 sales. Index. Bound in the original dark green cloth lettered in shiny gold on the spine and front cover. "Albert A. Grinnell. formed a truly immense collection of paper money. He seems to have been particularly active from about 1911 through the Depression years of the 1930s when with virtually no competition he acquired many National Bank notes and with only a few other collectors in the field bought many Legal Tender and Coin notes Silver Certificates and other items. The main paper money collection was consigned to Barney Bluestone a Syracuse NY dealer. Sold in a series of seven sales from 1944 through 1946 the Grinnell Collection auctions attracted only about a half dozen active bidders at each event. William Donlon later recalled that the only buyers on hand were F. C. C. Boyd Harley Freeman James Wade Richard Safflin and Herman K. Crofoot in addition to Donlon himself. Of course these names were in themselves a formidable line-up. The Grinnell Collection has achieved legendary status among modern scholars and. its status in history is certainly justified. Today we can only reflect upon the treasures that were offered -- for example: 35 National Gold Bank notes one $100 'Watermelon' Coin Note of 1890 and two $1000 'Grand Watermelon' Coin Notes 3300 National Bank Notes including 750 from Grinnell's home state of New York and 260 from his adopted state of Michigan and 43 examples of major currency errors including two sheets of notes with $10 faces and $5 backs which offered in the final sale realized $3550 each etc." -- harrybassfoundation.
