‎[SCHIFF (Mortimer L.)] RICCI (Seymour de).‎
‎French signed bindings in the Mortimer L. Schiff collection.‎

‎New York sans nom 1935 4 forts volumes in-4, bradel toile bleu nuit, non rognés (cartonnages de l'éditeur).Première édition de ce catalogue, un monument décrivant très en détail les 413 exceptionnelles reliures signées par les plus grands relieurs français, du début du XVIIe siècle au milieu du XIXe siècle (de Florimond Babier jusqu'à Trautz-Bauzonnet). Nous y trouvons quantité de renseignements qui n'existent dans aucune autre documentation, et pour la plupart des œuvres, non seulement les décors à l'extérieur des plats ont été reproduits, mais aussi les doublures ornées, les encadrements intérieurs et les signatures des relieurs. La bibliothèque Mortimer L. Schiff fut dispersée en vente publique en 1938, avec un résultat catastrophique. Très bel exemplaire, complet.‎

‎Magnifique survol de plus de 300 reliures de la riche bibliothèque de Mortimer L. Schiff. Avec illustration et déscriptions en détail de toutes les reliures, mais aussi leurs maîtres (avec la liste alphabetique), pages de gardes, les étiquettes et leurs cachets.Over 300 fine reproductions of bindings. The most comprehensive collection of French 18th and 19th century signed bindings formed by an individual collector. Each binding is described in detail pointing out the special characteristics of the binder, and all but a few of the larger volumes are illustrated full-size. Doublures and inner dentelles have also been reproduced, as have all binders' tickets and stamps, these in facsimile. The section on British and Miscellaneous signed bindings is similarly meticulously treated, the British bookbindings are mainly from the 18th and early 19th centuries. The catalogue was published by Seymour De Ricci after the death of Mortimer Leo Schiff (1877-1932). 'Schiff had entrusted the formation of his library' to the 'polymath' De Ricci, and the work has since 'become a standard reference work' (Breslauer). ‎
