Plenteous thanks to Kathleen Lynch for this important information. (I had read about this find earlier, perhaps a Fine Books & Collections Blog post, but not in such detail.) All of this recent activity holds special interest for me, as my copy of Lucy Hutchinson’s “Memoirs” (1st ed., 1806; complete; 446 pp; original boards; armorial plate of James Frampton) is very likely to now appreciate in market value. I’ll be watching for further follow up. (And I shall contact David Norbrook, alerting him to my copy & its provenance). My copy of the Hutchinson appears in an article on my rare books, Fine Books & Collections magazine, Fall, 2016. Thank you, again, Kathleen Lynch ~ MEM, 17 Jan. 2017.
