At our upcoming quality book auction on December 7, we will auction off an impressive collection of cookbooks from Inga-Lill Skoog’s library, i.a. includes some books from Tore Wretman’s library and several fine manuscripts.

We also offer several important older works in history and travelogues, for example Rudbeck’s well-known Atlantica and Krantz’s Chronicle, i.a. from 1546. The catalog also contains interesting maps and atlases, e.g. over the Baltic Sea area and several 16th century maps by Ortelius and Fries.

One of the highlights of the auction is a very rare woodcut from the late 16th century depicting the Russian delegation arriving at the Reichstag in Regensburg in 1576.
