In Pursuit of a Vision > Case 10 > Stoddard > Hübners Biblische

 

The Details:

Johann Hübner. Hübners Biblische Historien als dem Alten und Neuen Testamente Cornersburg, Ohio: Augustus Gräter, 1835. [catalog record]

Purchase, Harry G. Stoddard Memorial Fund, 2008.

The Story:

AAS actively seeks examples of transatlantic publishing, and this recent acquisition is one of the more unusual. Although the title page has a Cornersburg, Ohio, imprint this volume bears title wording, pagination, and illustrations identical to those of several 1830’s Reutlingen editions. Careful examination reveals the Cornersburg imprint to be a cancel slip pasted over the original Reutlingen imprint.
