MESSRS. PUTTICK AND 

 SIMPSON beg to announce that their 

 season for SALES OF LITERARY PRO- 

 PERTY has now commenced. In addressing 

 Executors and others entrusted with the dis- 

 posal of Libraries and Collections 'however 

 limited or extensive), of Manuscripts, Auto- 

 graphs, Piints, Pictures, Music, Musical In- 

 struments, Objects of Art and Vertti, and 

 Works connected with Literature and the Arts 

 generally, they would suggest a Sale by Auc- 

 tion as the readiest and surest method of ob- 

 taining their full value ; and conceive that the 

 central situation of their Premises (near 

 St. James's Church), their extensive connexion 

 of more than half a century's standing, and 

 the careful circulation of their Catalogues in 

 all parts of the country, and, when necessary, 

 throughout Europe and America, are advan- 

 tages that will not be unappreciated. Messrs. 

 P. and S. will also receive small Parcels of 

 Books, or other Literary Property, and insert 

 them in occasional Sales with property of a 

 kindred description, thus giving the same ad- 

 vantages to the possessor of a few lots as to the 

 owner of a large collection.

 paration for immediate Sale, viz. :

 laneous Prints ; also, some Drawings and
