This October, Sotheby’s New York will kick off an unprecedented series of eight auctions to celebrate one of the most significant and comprehensive rare book libraries to ever come to auction: Bibliotheca Brookeriana: the T. Kimball Brooker Library of Renaissance Books and Bindings. A carefully curated, extraordinary library of more than 1,300 sixteenth-century French and Italian books in their original bindings, passionate collector and scholar T. Kimball Brooker diligently assembled the library across more than six decades. Estimated to achieve in excess of $25 million, the collection will be presented in a live evening auction in New York this October - marking the first dedicated Books & Manuscripts evening auction in New York in a decade.
