Day 23 of @AmAntiquarian fellowship and I found a #horcrux amongst the #rarebooks. This yours, @Lord_Voldemort7 ????

@InformationJmac @AmAntiquarian I realize it's not what you were looking for, but did he own Micrographia as well? #PersonalFavorite

And....day 22 of my @AmAntiquarian fellowship. Looking for marginalia in the Mather family #astronomy titles. Found a #sammelband of 6 titles by Robert Hooke, including his work on comets, a response to Hevelius, and his observations on planetary motion. #histsci #bookhistory
