Collection of Printed Materials / Offprints / Publications / Papers, Essays by english geologist, William Daniel Gill (1916 – 1922) [plus dozens of offprints from colleagues, sent to Gill (see full List on our website under the section “Libraries & Collections”]. This extensive collection of materials, authored by this eminent geologist, was once part of the Reference-library of his colleague David (Dave) Naylor but sells here separately. You find a detailed account of Gill’s own publications at the end of this description. The collection also includes the original offprint of his landmark-publication “Sand Volcanoes on Slumps in the Carboniferous of County Clare, Ireland”, which he authored together with P.H.Kuehnen in 1957 [and which is here included with a typescript of the work included with manuscript-corrections by Gill in the text]. Besides his own works in offprints, there are dozens of pamphlets and offprints by fellow colleagues which were sent to Gill during his career, often with signatures or inscriptions (and one letter) by the authors to Gill. Important: Noteworthy is also a section of pamphlets / offprints which Gill had received from the library of Professor Louis Bouvier Smyth (″L.B.Smyth”). Included is a large amount of original papers Louis Bouvier Smyth published, starting as early as the year 1915 (!). This section is catalogued in detail as well as several works of W.D. Gill’s Professor and Teacher, english geologist and palaeontologist, Robert George Spencer Hudson.
