Dysart Memorial Exhibition, April 1973

All of the 9 mss, 13 incunabula, and 47 other rare books are first linked to the 69 numbered descriptive paragraphs in the 1973 exhibition catalogue, and then to their more complete bibliographic counterparts in the online catalogue BISON. The 14 plates in the center are showcased in the Virtual Gallery
