Charles York Esq Attorney General. 1146 pp. 1 vols. Folio. Baskerville's Masterpiece in Staggemeier & Welcher Binding. The 1763 edition of Baskerville's Bible has always been recognised as his masterpiece and is one of the high-points in the history of printing in Britain. This beautiful and monumental binding can be closely dated because Thomas Powys formerly MP for Northamptonshire was created Baron Lilford in 1797 and Staggemeier & Welcher are recorded in partnership on Villiers Street as of 1799. By 1810 Welcher was in business alone at that address. The Hon and Rev. Frederic Powys whose name appears on the spine was the third son of the first Lord Lilford; he married in 1807. Whether the binding was commissioned for his taking holy orders or on the occasion of his marriage can only be conjectured. A landmark of printing in a splendid binding.

1904WRCLIT67265London & New York: Samuel Bagster and Sons / James Pott and Co. 1904. xix14862pp. Octavo. Printed wrappers. A few pencil notes wrappers tanned at spine with shallow chips at spine ends; a good copy. A preliminary private version of Herbert 2136 with a special preface re: justification and methodology. The wrapper title asserts the text embodies "the Labours of Many Eminent English and Greek Scholars" and Herbert identifies the editors as Samuel Lloyd and George Washington Moon. The edition described in Herbert is "tentative" and has a different collation; an earlier partial proof appeared in 1902 see D&M 1348. COPAC locates two copies of the "tentative" edition and OCLC/Worldcat four but both come up empty for this "Private issue." A bibliographic and textual curiosity. HERBERT 2136ref.

1792WRCLIT76093London: Printed for Bellamy and Roberts 1792. Four volumes bound in six. Quarto. Contemporary unlettered calf marbled endsheets spines gilt. Plates and maps some folding. Institutional bookplate and early gift inscriptions hinges cracked but still holding spine ends chipped scattered foxing and tanning burn scar to lower board of first volume scrape to spine of sixth volume. Still a sound useful set amenable to cosmetics. First edition of Thomas Scott's edition of the English Bible first published in 174 weekly numbers spanning 1788-92. The enterprise contributed to the bankruptcy of the publisher and Scott was saddled with considerable debt but his commentary has been described as "the greatest theological performance of our age and country" - Sir James Stephen quoted by Herbert. The title calls for a Concordance and accompaniments which does not appear in this set -- according to Herbert it is usually the separate 3rd edition of Powell's 1792 concordance and was published as a separate accompaniment in quarto format and in 8vo both as standalones. Given the binding configuration of this set it usually appears in four volumes it is possible that this set was bound up from the parts issue. The New Testament is bound in two volumes with general title in 1st volume only and what usually appears as volume one is here present in two volumes with the general title in the first and the second beginning with Ruth. ESTC locates three sets: BL Newport Central and Washington State. HERBERT 1366. ESTC T95096. Printed for Bellamy and Roberts unknown books

Bible: engraved title and full-page woodcut of the Garden of Eden trimmed close and shaved at fore-margin normal page numbering errors in gathering 3K occasional modest soiling and some generally minor spotting. a few small marginal repairs one a tear in lower edge of 2Z3 across several lines without loss minute worm track in inner gutter of 2M-T; Psalms: repaired tear in upper margin of A3 touching a few letters K1-7 a bit limp and frayed with repairs to two lower blank forecorners; K8 terminal blank wanting; some moderate scattered soiling minute wormhole in black fore-margin of leaves G8 to end some rust satins to gutter/inner margins of gatherings G and H resulting in a few small holds; bookseller's annotations on pastedowns in ink !!! describing it an "exceptionally fine volume" and giving partially erroneous bibliographic citations. Still generally a good volume. 2344double-spread map; 4362 i.e. 366 361-444 2 3- 135 7 leaves; 1114 i.e. 1137pp. 1 vols. Small folio. A characteristic gathering of the three texts the Bible being the Geneva-Tonson-Junius version in an edition that is a very close reprint of Barker's 1607 edition. The general engraved title is undated and the sectional full title-page for the NT is dated 1611 but the printer's colophon at the end is dated 1612. The text of the Apocrypha is included as a part of the contiguous whole. The edition of the Genealogies which is here bound prior to the Bible is one of the several folio printings attributed to Beale that are partially sorted as to minute variants in STC and ESTC; however this example does not conform to the variants in ESTC in regard to the line-breaks in the side note on A1V. The present edition of the Sternhold and Hopkins Psalms includes some music settings. This is among the last folio London printings of the Geneva text the standard text of 16th century Protestantism and the text referenced by Shakespeare Donne Bunyan et al. The first edition of the NT was printed in Geneva in 1557 and was first printed in England in 1575-6. ESTC S1189; S101955; and S122901. Herbert 312.

A highly likely association copy of some interest signed on the front binder's blank "Sarah S. Villiers 1804" probably Sarah Sophia Child-Villiers 1785-1867 Countess of Jersey and with the earlier signature of "Sarah Child 1779" her mother Sarah Anne Child 1764-1793. Sarah Childs married Lord Villiers on 23 May 1804. As heir to Child's Bank and to the property at Osterley Park she brought considerable resources to the marriage and was engaged as an active partner at the bank. She exerted influence in political circles and was prominent socially sufficient to provide models for fictional characters in novels by Disraeli and Lady Caroline Lamb. ESTC T91638.
