| Description |
Dunn, R.W. [continuing the work of Frank C. Kenworthy]. The Kenworthy-Dunn Check List. (Los Angeles, 1932). Small three-ring binder with tabs, housing approximately 175 leaves of early duplicated typescript, which has been very heavily annotated by a collector. A few leaves detached, but present. This was the first privately circulated work on transportation tokens, and was originally compiled by Kenworthy, who passed his work along to Dunn, who circulated this duplicated typescript on a very limited basis. This appears to be the copy sold in the 1971 Fuld Library sale, where it was stated that only three copies were known--an overly precise statement, we feel, though it is certainly extremely rare. Estimate $350. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society.
