Shakespeare Relics on Exhibit

An exhibition of various old original volumes and facsimiles of Shakespeare are now in the display cases of the Treasure Room of the Library.

The most interesting volume is the facsimile of an original Shakespearian book of the first edition. The original, which was printed in 1623, is owned by the Library but will not be on display. Two Elizabethan editions and a photo-lithographic copy of the first folio of 1623 will, also be on exhibition. This collection is shown in connection with the lecture on "Shakespeare" to be given by Professor Kittredge on Wednesday.
