Т. Р. МАРВИН И СЫН, НУМИЗМАТИЧЕСКАЯ ТИПОГРАФИЯ.
1897.

Описанная на следующих страницах археологическая коллекция
 была собрана известным коллекционером, который ныне по личным
 причинам отказывается от приятного занятия, стольким годам
 посвятившего свои часы досуга. Каждый экземпляр в
 коллекции был отобран с осмотрительной разборчивостью
 с целью продемонстрировать лучшие образцы оружия и орудий,
 созданных и изготовленных доисторическим человеком той части
 Североамериканского континента, которая охватывается границами нынешних Соединенных
 Штатов. Подобные объекты представляют большой интерес и ценность для всех,
 кто увлекается этой ветвью археологии, а предоставляемая возможность
 пополнить свои кабинеты безупречными экземплярами по собственной цене
 представляется крайне редко.

Среди объектов, представляющих особый интерес, можно обнаружить вампумовый
 пояс договора; большое количество церемониальных трубок, включая
 некоторые чрезвычайно редкие формы; различные изделия из гематита, обсидиана,
 меди и т. д.; редкие идолы из Аризоны; храмовые вазы инков
 из чеканного серебра из некрополя Анконы и т. д. Иностранное оружие
 и оружие эпохи Войны за независимость в конце каталога
 будут признаны всеми интересующимися этой темой ценными экземплярами,
 заслуживающими того, чтобы фигурировать в лучших коллекциях.

Каждый предмет в этой коллекции будет продан с гарантией
 составителя каталога относительно его абсолютной подлинности и аутентичности
 как в отношении материала, так и в отношении атрибуции.

Заказы добросовестно исполняются аукционистами и торговцами произведениями искусства
 в целом.
