Description
Exceptionally scarce and beautifully illustrated seed catalogue. Mono throughout, vegetable section on pink stock. Numerous engravings promising bounteous results. Bell sold his business in the 1900s and established the rival Deposit Seed Company. He later found himself in court for intercepting mail to his former company in an early case of industrial espionage. All in very good internal order, light wear to paper covers, with a little creasing etc to edges. Only one copy listed on WorldCat, at the New-York Historical Society Library. 4to. 64pp. Additional photos on request.
