Johnson) stamped on front endpage, else book very good. Mr. Johnson was a long time Research Associate at Harvard's Museum of Comparative Zoology, having started as a volunteer while still in high school. He published his first scientific article in 1941, at the age of 16, beginning his life as a gentleman scholar, an amateur with a worldwide scholarly reputation who produced more than 50 papers about malacology. Over six decades Johnson assembled perhaps the largest private collection of books and journals on molluscs, including titles seldom found even in research libraries, each volume identified with a discrete stamp of "Richard I. Johnson" to a preliminary leaf. It was one of the greatest collections of shell books ever assembled. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" Tall.
