| Description
(subject, years covered, format, physical description,
etc.) |
Thirty unusual
19th and early 20th c. items from East Bengal/Bangladesh.
Small vols, 6 x 10", around 70 p. each.
Persianized Bengali language, printed "front
to back" like Perso-Arabic books.
Religious and story literature. Very brittle condition. |
| Reasons
for Consideration (Importance of material, history of
collection, physical condition, etc.) |
Very rare materials--no
records on OCLC. These works represent the meeting or
melding of Indic and Perso-Arabic traditions, and are
potentially important for academic research.
Collected by Tony Stewart. |
