1925-1928年《喬治·尤摩弗帕勒斯珍藏中國、朝鮮及波斯陶器》6冊全

英國收藏家尤氏(George Eumorfopoulos 1863-1939)的大名，在收藏圈可以説如雷貫耳。他是惠靈頓展覽的組織者，東方陶瓷協會的創始人與首任會長。他的收藏領域極廣，從瓷器書畫到青銅玉器都有涉獵，且是高古陶器品鑒的先行者。這套金色封面的圖錄是一代歐美藏家的聖經。全手工紙印刷，書口書底毛邊，灑金邊框内貼彩圖，以半透明薄紙輕輕護住。限量發行750冊，本套編號142。

本部來自紐約藏家亞瑟·羅斯維(Arthur B. Rothwell)的私人文獻庫。羅斯維出身德州名門，家中世代經營天然氣生意，上世紀初開始收藏中國藝術。北美書畫重鎮——堪薩斯城納爾遜-阿金斯博物館所藏的陳閎《八公圖》、王原祁《仿趙孟頫桃源春》和《仿惠崇江南春》冊頁，原本就是羅斯維的藏品。在楊仁愷的《國寶沈浮錄》中均有記載。

書畫之外，羅斯維也雅好瓷器。這套《尤氏藏瓷》中的不少珍品他都曾上手把玩，所以在每一幀插圖旁邊密密麻麻注有筆記，讀來別有意趣。
