Catalog in a very well made, stylish half-leather binding - leather and canvas.
Gilded embossing on the cover, the spine is gilded, but without embossing.
The excellent selected binding perfectly matches the catalog of the best and largest contemporary sold collection of Polish numismatic coins.
Previous excellent Polish collections - dubbed the "four great collections" - were sold between 1904 and 1932, and only this one, sold 68 years later - in 2000 - the Henry V. Karolkiewicz collection. Karolkiewicz matched them in class. Since the sale of H. Karolkevich's collection, not another has appeared at auction that has matched its stature.
The auction catalog of Karolkiewicz's collection ranks high among the classics of Polish numismatics and is becoming more and more valued and sought after every year.
This piece in a beautiful, individually and expertly made bookbinding.
