[Hardy-l] Jude the Obscure: Page Proofs

[Robert Goddard]

Dear All,

I've just noticed that Sotheby's are auctioning what they describe as a "complete sequence of page proofs for the first book edition of Hardy's novel, 'Jude the Obscure', with substantial autograph revisions by Hardy throughout".  They describe this as "one of the most important text-related Thomas Hardy items ever offered at auction...".

The auction is being held on December 13 in London.  Further information here:
