Re: request for literature regarding collecting
during
I am writing my Master's thesis on
some of the collectors of a large ethnographical museum in the
Netherlands. Has anybody got suggestions regarding literature not to
miss about colonial collecting processes?

The numismatic (coins, tokens, medals and paper money studying
and collecting) books of Q. David Bowers often have touched on
collecting habits of the 19th century and sometimes before.
Also, there have been books about book and document collecting in the
18th century and earlier. But not being a book collector I can't
give you a name.
