Description
Page 9 from New York City rare-book dealer J.J. Cohane's 1959 catalog. Mabbott has made a line in the left margin indicating the item of interest: a first edition of Horace Binney Wallace's Stanley; or The Recollections of a Man of the World (Philadelphia, 1838). Mabbott references Cohane's catalog in note 18 of his version of "The Purloined Letter." See also Mabbott's note 12 for that tale.
