Thelem Abbey Library
The Thelem Abbey library is a series of literary works published by Georg Müller between 1910 and 1923 . Otto Julius Bierbaum was the founder and publisher . It was mainly books from the 18th century, mostly in very meritorious editions, that were made so tangible. The standard equipment is half-leather in-8, but there are also cheaper editions and reprints that were additionally or exclusively in red, blue or green linen.
