Rare complete set, spanning from its first publication in 1886 up until 2022, of “Ars Quatuor Coronaturum”, the longest continuously running Masonic Research Journal in the world and arguably the most important repository of Masonic history and research. Published by the famous Quatuor Coronati Lodge No. 2076, the publication gathered the leading Masonic historians and bibliographers of the age - among them Gould, Hughan, Speth, Knoop, Jones, Waite and Carr - whose documentary and archival studies revolutionized the understanding of the origins and development in general of Freemasonry. The work was intended to replace “imaginative fiction” with authenticated and factual historical research; "Ars Quatuor Coronatorum" remains the indispensable foundation for all serious study of the Craft. Its pages contain pioneering essays on early lodge records, rituals, symbolism, Rosicrucianism, Templar traditions, continental Masonry, and the bibliographical history of the Order.
