Photo of Percy H. Muir
Can anyone direct me to a pictorial likeness of the noted
bookseller/bibliographer Percy H. Muir (1894-1979)? I have a photo which I believe includes him but I'm not certain. Help would be appreciated!

... Can anyone direct me to a pictorial likeness of the noted bookseller/bibliographer Percy H. Muir (1894-1979)? I have a photo which I believe includes him but I'm not certain. Help would be appreciated! There is a picture of Muir (with John Carter and Graham Pollard) in RARE BOOK REVIEW, Oct. 2004, p. 28. The picture is likely reproduced from Donald C. Dickinson's recent biography of John Carter (the bibliophile, not the Warlord of Mars): http://www.oakknoll.com/detail.php?d_booknr=76307 William M. Klimon http://www.catholicbookcollector.com |

Take a look at http://www.oakknoll.com/detail.php?d...45&d_currency=
This is an image of the cover of SECOND IMPRESSION, RURAL LIFE WITH A RARE BOOKMAN written by Barnara Kaye (Mrs. Percy Muir), and has a picture of Kaye and Muir seated on either side of a desk. Not great detail, but should suffice for your purposes. Regards, Tim Timothy Doyle Monthly column on Collecting Science Fiction www.bookthink.com |
