1824116561824. London Harding etc. 1824. 4lii912pp. 8vo. Buckram binding slightly soiled & traces of use. First edition. The advertised intention of 'The Library Companion' was to provide a guide to the best books for study and reference in all parts of learning seasoned with literary and bibliophilic anecdotes. But his passions for the rare and curious diverted Dibdin from these worthy aims and as one of his friends remarked he once again 'became rampant' on editions typography illustrations bindings and rare book prices. However the modern reader will find a good many interesting details about books collectors and book trade personalities of the time. c.f.

Back to Bologna is dazzlingly plotted features a cast of vivid and idiosyncratic characters and along the way delivers both comic and serious insights into the realities of today's Italy.

Thomas John Dibdin ; FashionManuscript of humorous poem 'The Chapter of Fashions Written by T Dibdin' Thomas John Dibdin on the history of clothing and Regency dress with variations from the printed versions including an extra stanza.

11432Undated circa 1802. 2pp. 4to. Good on lightly-aged paper. Divided into eight four-line stanzas each with the same two-line refrain. The first stanza: 'Fashion was formed when the World began And Adam I am told was a very smart man As for Eve I shall say nothing more or less. But that Ladies of Fashion now copy her dress. Yet barring all pother of this that & tother we all bow to Fashion in turn'. Containing witty references to the fashion for hunting boots and crops New Bond Street Tudor and Stuart clothing Whigs and Tories. The poem appears to have been popular as it was printed in various collections: attributed to Dibdin in 'Thespian Gleanings' Ulverston 1805 and printed anonymously in 'The Theatrical Banquet' London 1809 'The Syren' Newcastle: David Bass 1816 and 'The Roundelay' Doncaster: Thomas and Hunsley n.d. all with variations including the absence of the seventh stanza about 'The Fashion of Fighting' and the line 'And their Shoes were turn'd up like a Critical Nose;' printed as 'And their shoes were square toed yellow worsted their hose.' Possibly written during the Peace of Amiens in 1802-1803 as the seventh stanza states that 'Peace is the fashion'. Although it is likely that the manuscript is in Dibdin's hand comparison with an 1838 letter by him is inconclusive; the later hand is tighter and smaller while this manuscript is a larger fair hand copy. See Image. Undated [circa 1802?]. hardcover
