Greetings friends,

Have any of you done a fairly systematic comparison of the Hollstein 
Dutch & Flemish Etchings, Engravings and Woodcuts to the New Hollstein 
series?

Same question for Hollstein German Engravings, Etchings and Woodcuts and 
New Hollstein German...

Does the New Hollstein truly supersede Hollstein? Is there any 
information in Hollstein that the New Hollstein lacks?

Also, and I find this a bit concerning, I note that the Hollstein series 
volume (v.59) on the Wierix Family, part 1 (ISBN 90-75607-49-0) is 
identical to the New Hollstein volume on the Wierix Family, part 1 (ISBN 
90-75607-98-9). Both dated 2003. (And I suspect I will find the same to 
be true if I check the other Wierix volumes in the two series.) Any 
other observations on obvious duplication between the Hollstein and the 
New Hollstein for either Dutch/Flemish or German?

Are you keeping both the original Hollstein and the New Hollstein in 
your stacks, or relegating the previous version to your local version of 
off-site storage?

Any insight into the relationship between these series would be most 
appreciated. Please share any and all comments with the list.

Regards,
Peter Blank
