Description

Excerpt from Two Great Gifts: The Lummis Library and Collections, the Munk Library Private collections, however carefully treasured, are generally dissipated by the heirs of the person who has gathered them. The same intense interest in certain scientific or educational pursuits seldom manifests itself in succeeding generations of the same family, so that it has become an axiom among museum directors that private collections disappear altogether within three genera tions. So general has this idea become throughout the world that the public free museum is being more and more frequently enriched by accessions by gift or bequest.
