Published in 1897, this is the first volume of the catalogue of Egyptian antiquities in the collection of Hilton Price. The catalogue is richly illustrated with photographs and drawings of the objects, many of which were drawn by his daughter Etheldred and good friend Edward Towry Whyte (1847–1932). In total, the catalogue contains 4110 items. A copy of the catalogue can be downloaded here: http://dlib.nyu.edu/ancientworld/books/ifa_egypt000125

Volume 2 of the catalogue of Egyptian antiquities in the collection of Hilton Price was published in 1908. The objects in this catalogue, which number 1035, were collected between 1897 and 1909. As with the first volume, drawings were produced by Edward Towry Whyte (1847–1932). A copy of the catalogue can be downloaded here: http://dlib.nyu.edu/ancientworld/books/ifa_egypt000401/1

The collection of Hilton Price was sold at Sotheby’s auction house in July 1911. The 1519 lots sold for a combined total of £12,040, with the objects being dispersed to many museums and private collections throughout the world. A copy of the catalogue can be downloaded here:

During the sale of the Hilton Price collection in July 1911, 81 lots were purchased by Henry Bourne, who was one of Sir Henry Wellcome’s long serving men. This list consists of around 600 items, which was compiled in 1911 by the Assyriologist William St. Chad Boscawen (1855–1913), who was tasked with cataloguing Wellcome’s Egyptian collection.
