Book list

Identifier: Item 1

Scope and Contents

From the Collection:

The collection contains one notebook with a record of books (listed alphabetically by author and by title), including information about book prices and publishers, compiled by Cameron McRae Plummer. The list also includes information about book scarcity. A few postcards and letters are also inserted in the book. The back of the notebook contains a small number of miscellaneous notes dated between 1950 and 1961; these notations mostly document the interests of individual collectors.

It is not clear if this is an actual inventory of books sold at The Haunted House Book Shop, which Plummer co-founded with Adelaide Trigg, or if is a list of books to be purchased for the shop or for a specific customer.
