Photo of Percy H. Muir

Can anyone direct me to a pictorial likeness of the noted
bookseller/bibliographer Percy H. Muir (1894-1979)? I have a photo which I
believe includes him but I'm not certain. Help would be appreciated!

There is a picture of Muir (with John Carter and Graham Pollard) in RARE
BOOK REVIEW, Oct. 2004, p. 28. The picture is likely reproduced from Donald
C. Dickinson's recent biography of John Carter (the bibliophile, not the
Warlord of Mars):

Take a look at http://www.oakknoll.com/detail.php?d...45&d_currency=

This is an image of the cover of SECOND IMPRESSION, RURAL LIFE WITH A
RARE BOOKMAN written by Barnara Kaye (Mrs. Percy Muir), and has a
picture of Kaye and Muir seated on either side of a desk. Not great
detail, but should suffice for your purposes.

They're not the same? I've been giving out wrong information all these
years? He must have thought me crazy when I asked him to sign my copy of
Thuvia. OH, I am so ashamed.

I believe the Martian Warlord is currently working as a doctor in the ER of
a Chicago hospital.

But he's about to become a big movie star, with the production of the
long-awaited Barsoomian blockbuster:
