College, wardess, I9 20 V 19 THE ALMANACIL E21l RARE AND cUR1oUs Books The words Ubibliomaniacn and ' bibliophile express the regard of men for books. Whether the regard . for books is because of the subject r matter, paper, printing or the bind- ing, it matters not, but because of this love or passion for collecting and preserving books and even whole libraries have been saved to the World. , Franklin College Library possesses some rare and curious books because some one in the past has had a pas- sion for books. The library con- tains many volumes that are over a hundred years old, but that does not signify that they are rare. To really - be rare, a book must have some merit, it may be prized as a speci- men of printing, the illustrator's work may be the reason, the expen- sive binding, or the kind of paper used. Books may be absolutely rare, or only-relatively so. Mere age does not make a book rare. The Mentz Psalter, 1457', is the oldest book with date. The Mazarin Bible was printed about 1455. Per- haps the most valuable American , printed book is The Lawg of the Frances M. Dean, A.M.-A.B.
