Treasures of the Library

Images from the Moxon Collection held at Plymouth Central Library.

Taken from volumes left to Plymouth Library in 1930 by the naturalist and traveller Alfred Edward Moxon, and items donated to the Library after the building and all stock were destroyed during a bombing raid in the early-summer of 1941.

Read more about The Moxon Collection including the Ptolemy Geographia, donated in 1947.

See a selected list of titles and authors in the Moxon Collection.
