A COLLECTION OF THE WORKS OF ALDOUS HUXLEY.

First Editions British and American. A superb collection containing over 400 items, first editions, British and American, signed or inscribed first editions, signed limited editions, translations, biographies, bibliographies and critical studies, contributions to books and periodicals, letters and books from Huxley's library, recordings, motion picture material and art with a few paperbacks to top it off.

This outstanding collection was assembled over a 25 year period; there are more than 400 items in the collection. Some highlights are as follows: A copy of every signed, limited edition; the first American and the first English edition of virtually every title authored by Huxley; more than 100 contributions to periodicals, including all recorded appearances in Harper's and Esquire; a number of letters, including one to the publisher of Appennine; 18 first editions, signed or inscribed by Huxley; a first edition of Jona, one of 50 copies printed for friends of the author, inscribed to Francis Rennell Rodd; friend of Oscar Wilde; a first edition of "Limbo" with top edges stained green, of which less than 25 copies were printed as advance copes; 2 books from Huxley's library; one with marginal notes-rare because his library burned shortly before his death; and an excellent oil painting of Aldous Huxley. Below are a few selections from this collection with a full catalog listing the contents of this library below.
