1842122753Tall thick 8vo. London: Bohn 1842. Tall thick 8vo 2 i-vii vii-xiv 618 63 1 xxxiii pp. Full pebbled brown morocco with gilt fillet borders gilt turn-ins gilt-panelled backstrip raised bands gilt top rebacked retaining original backstrip. Bookplate on front pastedown of Francis Frederick Fox and Charles Sebag-Montefiore. § First combined edition large paper copy. The book that introduced the concept of “bibliomania†to the world. “Dibdin's best-known and in the later editions most useful book.†Jackson 19. 500 copies were printed of which 50 according to Huth or 55 according to Church were large-paper. The Huntington and Rabaiotti large-paper copies state 55 copies on plate 2 see above. Bound in white boards in the Huth sale in two volumes. Price 3 guineas and 5 guineas according to Lowndes. A sometimes confusing book. The Grolier Club copy has the 1809 1811 and 1842 prefaces bound at the front; then the 1811 edition precedes the 1809 edition and the indexes are at the end. The 1809 title is often with the text rather than the preliminaries as in Barlow’s copy. The Morgan Library copy is bound in a different order. The Huntington Library large-paper copy with a fore-edge painting of Althorp is as the Grolier Club copy. The second Huntington large-paper copy is bound in four volumes and extra-illustrated with 372 plates including two portraits of Dibdin: a proof of Eldridge’s engraving dated 12 February 1816 and a line engraving after Richmond’s water-color by G. Staal for Le bibliophile français. It is lacking the two-leaf ‘Advertisement.’ There is no separate title to the 1811 edition. Jackson’s pagination conforms to none of these orders. The Bohn sale at Sotheby’s 1868 lot 2636 describes a copy on ‘Large Pink Paper the only copy so printed’ offered again by Sotheby’s on 3 June 1997 library of George Pflaumer; the present owner is Roland Folter. John Priddy has a single-leaf single-sided prospectus to this edition dated April 1838 promising a print date of August not mentioned by Jackson. Windle A 11d. Bohn hardcover books
183220035London: Wm. Davy for Henry Bohn 1832. First edition 8vo pp. 102; without the errata slip at B1; half red morocco a little rubbed and spine darkened else good and sound or better. Windle & Pippin A60; Jackson 82: "Mercurius Rusticus and Cato Parvus were pseudonyms used by Dibdin in the Bibliomania. Owing to the agitation regarding Reform and perhaps also because of cholera epidemics the rare book market appeared to Dibdin to be very low indeed. His diatribe was touched off by the absurdly inadequate prices that the original manuscripts of the Waverley Novels fetched at Evans' sale 19 August 1831. Dibdin's natural optimism made him prophesy that the depression in books would not last long . One hundred copies of this book printed on large paper were also issued. [Wm. Davy for] Henry Bohn unknown
