Abstract
(In English below)
Gävleläkaren Gustaf Brun (1886-1958) var en boksamlare som samlade på favoritförfattare och stora klassiker i exklusiva utgåvor. Hans bibliotek omfattar ca 2000 volymer.
Samlingen innehåller främst böcker inom humaniora, som historia, kulturhistoria, konst, musik, medeltida filosofi och fornfransk litteratur, med mera.
Böckerna kommer ofta från engelska, franska och tyska tryckerier som inriktat sig på speciellt fina tryck, som Kelmscott Press och Ashendene Press. I samlingen ingår fjorton mycket sällsynta böcker som endast trycktes i ett fåtal exemplar på pergament.
Varje bok i samlingen är märkt med "Med[icine] Dr Gustaf Bruns gåva" plus ett löpnummer.
Gustaf Brun testamenterade sin boksamling till Uppsala universitetsbibliotek. Men böckerna är bara en del av Bruns gåvor till biblioteket. Hit kom även huvuddelen av Bruns konstsamling och delar av läkarbostadens möblemang i olika 1700-talsstilar. Dessa möbler finns idag i några av Carolina Redivivas representationsrum.
Gustaf Brun donerade redan 1951 den berömda Gimosamlingen till biblioteket, en samling med äldre italienska musikalier.
In English:
The Swedish physician Gustaf Brun (1886-1958) from Gävle was a book collector, who collected his favorite authors and the great classics in exclusive issues. His library contains ca 2000 volumes.
The collection consists mainly of books in the humanities: history, cultural history, art, music, medieval philosophy and old French literature, etc.
The editions have often been selected from English, French and German printing houses as Kelmscott Press and Ashendene Press. Fourteen volumes in the collection are very rare books printed on parchment in only a few copies.
Each book in the collection is marked "Med[icine] Dr Gustaf Bruns gåva" (Donation of medical doctor Gustaf Brun) followed by a unique assigned number.
In accordance with his will, Gustaf Brun left his book collection to the Uppsala University Library at his death. But the books are only a part of Brun’s gifts to the library. Here is also the major part of his art collection as well as some of his furniture in different 18th-century styles. This furniture is now in some of the halls of representation at Carolina Rediviva.
Gustaf Brun donated as early as 1951 the famous Gimo-collection to the library, a collection of rare Italian Music pieces:
Notes

Book binding
Binding:
Nästan alla böcker i samlingen har blivit ombundna på 1900-talet och har alltså inte sina ursprungliga bokband kvar. De flesta är bundna vid Hedbergs hovbokbinderi i Stockholm, hundratals av dessa i skinnband, varav en del praktband av Arvid Hedberg själv.
Almost all the books in the collection have been rebound in the 1900s and the original bindings are lacking. Most of the books are bound by Hedberg's bookbindery to the court in Stockholm. Hundreds of them are bound in leather bindings and some of them by Arvid Hedberg himself.
