I am the owner and heir to this book,,
so far I have not been able to find out anything about it except that a translation of it exists
that was done in 1853, by an Englishman who is now dead of course..
please help me figure out what to do.. I understand that Yale has an original collection in their Library,, and possibly the Goethe University in Frankfurt.. my mother was German and I unfortunately have only a rudimentary grasp of it.. I have researched this and know it is a First Edition, published in Liepzip around 1820 by a Book bimder named, Berlag von TH. Knaur (can't find any information on that either)
it is hard cover, with that stamped on the back,
decorated with flowers, hand painted, and gold leafed, with Gedicte and Goethe, embossed in gold on the front..
I was considering to sell it,, but now , since I just figured out what I have.. sort of..
need help..in appraising,, storing,
Thanks, Isabella Kempf Hale
