Major London 1824. First edition one volume issue. 100 large paper copies were issued in two volumes. Windle & A50a. Tipped-in after the upper free endpaper is an autograph letter from Dibdin signed and dated April 15 1814 with an integral address leaf to W. Godwin Bookseller franked by Earl Spencer in Bath. George John Spencer 2nd Earl Spencer 1758-1834 served as Home Secretary from 1806 to 1807. He was renowned for his vast and impressive book collection and was the instigator and first President of the Roxburghe Club the oldest society of bibliophiles in the world. Thomas Frognall Dibdin 1776-1847 was also a founding member of the Roxburghe Club. Earl Spencer was Dibdin's patron for many years opening up the library at Althorp to Dibdin for cataloguing. The resulting Bibliotheca Spenceriana a Descriptive Catalogue of the Books Printed in the Fifteenth Century and of Many Valuable First Editions in the Library of George John Earl Spencer is regarded as one of the most thorough and elaborate catalogues of a private library. In 1818 Spencer commissioned Dibdin to buy books for him on the continent a trip described in Bibliographical Antiquarian and Picturesque Tour in France and Germany 1821. Dibdin also wrote Aedes Althorpianae an account of Althorp giving many details of the library. The letter to Godwin is Dibdin's response to a request for a copy of Bibliotheca Spenceriana: 'Sir I understand you have solicited for a third copy of the B S as subscribed for last July - but am sorry to add that such third copy never came to my knowledge and there must have been a mistake somewhere. It is wholly out of my power to furnish you with it. I am Sir Your undeciphered T. F. Dibdin.' It is possible that the recipient could have been the writer and political philosopher William Godwin 1756-1836 widower of Mary Wollstonecraft and father of Frankenstein author Mary Shelley. At the time of the letter 1814 Godwin was a bookseller and publisher in partnership with his second wife Mary Jane Clairmont. In 1805 Mary Jane and William Godwin opened a bookshop and publishing house M. J. Godwin & Co. Among other popular titles the firm published The Swiss Family Robinson and Charles & Mary Lamb's Tales from Shakespeare. The bookshop also known as The Juvenile Library specialised in literature for children. N unknown

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.
