NEWMAN PORTAL ADDS BOURGEY CATALOGS

Newman Portal Adds Bourgey Catalogs

Can you think of a numismatic firm that has maintained the same address for over a century? Remarkably, the Paris dealer Bourgey has held forth at 7 rue Druout since 1907. The business was founded by Étienne Bourgey (1864-1943) in 1895. Among other accomplishments, Étienne cataloged the 1922 Arras hoard, an important group of Roman coins that most notably included gold medallions. He was succeeded by his son Émile (1914-1993), a co-founder of IAPN, and today the firm is operated by Sabine Bourgey.

 

Newman Portal has recently added 94 auction sale catalogs from this firm, most of which were scanned at American Numismatic Society in New York. This is a useful resource for ancient numismatics, as John Spring's Ancient Coin Auction Catalogues 1880-1980 includes Bourgey catalogs as nos. 9-59. Newman Portal acknowledges Sabine Bourgey for extending permission to present these catalogs with full view.
