FRAUDS IN CLD BOOKS.
Apelent und Rare Volumes Doetored,
Hestored and Tmitated,
A well known collector acquired
what he took to be a book published
by Aldus iu vhe year 1480. He pald
$1,000 for it and believed that it was
an original Aldus, because the publish-
er's press mark, a dolphin coiled round
an anchor, appeared upon it. When
the book was shown to an expert It
proved to be beyond a shadow of
doubt a modern antique—that is to
say, it was simply a copy of the orig-
inal work printed by an Ingenious book
fakir.” So clever was the imitation
that only an expert could tell it from
the original and rare book. Scores of
persons during recent years have
bought facsimiles of rare works under
the impression that they were getting
the originals. Dickens’ “Sunday Un-
der Three Heads” has been faked
many times and sold as original to
collectors who no doubt treasure them
as rarities. Genuine coples of this
little book are worth a good sum, and
some unscrupulous dealers, taking ad-
vantage of the circumstances, have
had it reprinted and palm off the
coples on unsuspecting bibllomaniacs
for the genuine first edition.
Many men make a living by “doe-
toring” old and rare books for un-
scrupulous dealers, These men are
adepts In the'art of book restoring and
are quite able to make good any part
of an imperfect copy. For Instance,
if a rare book has a leaf missing it is
handed over to a restorer, who re-
prints the page with battered «ype,
the paper upon which it is printed be-
ing afterward discolored with chem-
leals or tobacco water in order to give
it the true antique hue.
The first folio Shakespeare is, of
course, of great value, and it is safe
that every possible deception
has been practiced in fitting up coples
of this work for sale. At one time the
manufacture of first folio Shakespeares
wns quite a trade. A first folio having
several leaves missing had leaves in-
serted from the second follo, while In
case the entire of “Cymbe-
was reprinted and inserted In a
first follo. The “faked” pages were
80 cleverly done that several experts
were at first unable to detect them
when turning over the pages of the
work In question. look restorers, as
a rule, are most ingenious artists, and
they can produce an imitation of a
page of 4 rare book which will decelve
hundreds of collectors. One particu-
lar restorer has “doctored” more than
a thousand old books during the last
two years, producing pages In facsim-
fle and supplying colophons or deco
rated capitals. There is not a thing
wanting to make a book complete that
this man cannot skillfully “fake”
