Description

Attractive Reprint of Hall

Hall, Thomas. A DESCRIPTIVE LIST OF THE COPPERS ISSUED BY AUTHORITY, FOR THE STATE OF CONNECTICUT, FOR THE YEAR 1787. Glen Rock, 1987 reprint. 8vo, original pebbled and maroon cloth, gilt. 30, (2), 31–58 pages. Inscribed to Roger Persichilli and signed by Charles Davis and Bruce Kesse (the distributor and publisher). Fine. The Hall work was intended as a sort of checklist to be distributed among a select circle of fellow collectors. With the benefit of their comments and additions to the list, an expanded version of the work was to be published but it never saw fruition. The original edition is extremely rare and only fifty copies of this attractive reprint, derived from Henry Phelps’s annotated copy, were issued.
