Abstract
IN January 1994 the British Library purchased at auction a copy of Wyndham Lewis's political pamphlet Anglosaxony: A League that Works (shelfmark: Cup.410.f.419.). Published 30 June 1941 in Toronto by the Ryerson Press in an edition of 1500 and priced at 75 cents, 310 copies were sold by February 1944. According to the publishers no record exists of the remaining 1190 copies and Lewis's biographer Jeffrey Meyers states that it 'may have been pulped - for it is now unobtainable'. No copy is known to exist in British libraries.
