Oppenheimer, Edgar S., 1885-1959.

German immigrant to the United States, resided at 880 Fifth Avenue, New York, and assembled one of the largest collections of children's books in the world, built entirely after World War II. One of the major collections he acquired was that of F.R. Bussell's English children's books from the seventeenth to the mid-nineteenth centuries. The Morgan Library borrowed some 100 books from Oppenheimer for its exhibition of early children's books in 1954. After Oppenheimer's death, portions of his collection were sold at Sotheby's in 1974-1977, 1981, and 1982, at least the final sales having been arranged by Pierre Berè€s.

With the Anschluss in 1938 Oppenheimer fled Vienna to Switzerland; he emigrated to the U.S. in 1939, where he lived in New York City. He had apparently known Franz Werfel, and perhaps also Alma Mahler, before their emigration. He mentions having done drawings of Werfel around 1914, of which he had recently acquired reproductions.
