The Joyce Collection

The Joyce Collection

A recording I recently purchased makes reference to the Joyce collection. Can someone tell me the title of the work, and where one might purchase it if it is available? My various searches haven't resulted in any specific information, and I'm sure there are any number of you out there who could save me a lot of time. Many thanks.

Not sure if there's been a reprint, but ITMA has this version online:

Re: The Joyce Collection

Don't buy the reprints, they're exorbitantly priced which is very unfair, unfortunately a good example of the lengths booksellers are willing to go in offering a reprint edition of an old book. On an offset press in a run >500 copies, these shouldn't be selling for more than $40 each.

I have a copy of the Joyce Collection, including significant additions of the Forde and Pigot collections. I could scan or photocopy any part of it that you need.

The last reprint since the original edition was (to my knowledge) in 1965, by Cooper Square.
