OverviewExcerpt from Catalogue of the Books: In the Library of the Typothetae of the City of New York; With a Subject Index The first addition of importance came from the bequest of five hundred dollars in the will of our late lamented President, William C. Martin. This money was slowly but judiciously expended in the purchase of the most desirable books of authority and reference. The search for proper books was not confined to this city or country: Paris, Leip sic, and London were drawn upon. Next, and of equal value, was the gift of David Wolfe Bruce, who, six months before his death in 1894, broke up his valuable collection of typography and bibliography, and presented one portion of it to the Grolier Club and another to the Typothetae of this city.
