After a record-breaking year in 2021, Potter & Potter Auctions will maintain its momentum in 2022 with four major sales already planned for the Fine Books and Manuscripts department.

This May, Hindman Auctions will host two sales with items of interest for a wide range of collectors. The first, the sale of The Library of Jack Charles Davis, Sold to Benefit Charitable Institutions, will take place on May 3.

This spring, Heritage Auctions will host several important illustration sales.

This November, Hindman will auction items created and owned by renowned woodcut artist, illustrator, and operator of Pennyroyal Press, Barry Moser.

This fall, Heritage Auctions’ Rare Books department will hold an online auction featuring genre-defining works from the Gary Munson Collection.

This July, Devon Eastland, senior specialist of early printed books at Swann Galleries, turned her attention toward a special sale, Focus on Women, highlighting the contributions of those who identify as women in diverse fields that have shaped human history.

In a turbulent year for many auction houses, Catawiki, an international online marketplace headquartered in the Netherlands, has thrived.

On April 15, Swann Auction Galleries will host its Printed Manuscript and Americana sale, which will feature a noteworthy collection of American historical prints, as well as a variety of books and manuscripts.

On March 13, Potter & Potter Auctions will host its first rare book auction of 2021, which it has dubbed “A Sale of Literary Importance.”
