sigistenz Posted June 15, 2010 Report Share Posted June 15, 2010 Some out of print Russian Literature was offered in Baldwin's auction 65, May 5, 2010. Prices realized were incredibly high. This hardbound catalog of the famous Söderman, Leonid collection contains 447 lots, all pictured, with outstanding rarities, some of them never seen since. Also depicted full page are each of the rulers since Ivan the Terrible and an old map. Hit link below to see that the book fetched £280!(plus gravy). http://www.sixbid.com/nav.php?p=viewsale&a...id=6739&s=b As I concentrate on copper now, my copy (undamaged, as new) is available . PM invited. Thank you, Sigi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PM invited. Thank you, Sigi I looked for my copy but could not find it on short order. I did find the Hess & Bank Leu catalogue from November 1968 and, according to Ran Zander, this was also the Södermann collection. It is primarily gold, silver, and platinum though there are a few copper plate coins and pattern pieces. RWJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pages were glued, rather than sewn in and a few of them have come loose as the glue has aged. Maybe I should have it rebound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BKB Posted June 16, 2010 Report Share Posted June 16, 2010 Given the fact that is has become virtually impossible to buy one nowdays for any amount of money, I am not surprised someone spent that kind of money on the catalog. Guys, do not forget that there is a bunch of people who do not even consider this amount as money... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
