Whymper, the famous mountaineer who
ascended the Matterhorn in 1865 died in 1911. We assume that this book
was Whymper’s copy as the letter, which shows signs of having been pasted
in, was presumably removed when the book was rebound in the latter part of
the 20th cent. The letter says “ Dear Mr Whymper, Your note upon the coins
from the Theodul Pass will be read at the Numismatic Society 22 Albermarle
Street on Thursday the 18th. The meeting is at 7 o’c. I let you know in
case you can favour us with your presence.”
