"Part of the library" of Skinner, "consisting of a collection of valuable books in divinity, history, classical and philological learning, in several languages" was sold by retail sale in London, beginning 30 May 1712; no catalogue survives, but the sale was advertised in the Daily Courant.
Characteristic Markings
None of Skinner's books have been identified.
