Quinby Company of Boston MA. There was an edition in 25 volumes produced between 1902 and 1904 with 1000 of each volume printed by the Plimpton Press in Norwood MA. The last few volumes may have been printed elsewhere as there is no printer's name shown on the copyright page: Frederick J Quinby was frequently sued for unpaid bills so Plimpton Press may have stopped working for him because of having difficulty in getting paid. Advance notice of this series without any detail appeared in Notes and News within the Saturday Review of Books and Art in the New York Times on February 1 1902. There is variation in the binding of these 1000 sets. Nos. 77 & 182 are red leather with marbled boards with decorative gilt spines raised bands five compartments top edge gilt 'St. Louis Exposition Edition' at bottom of spine. Nos. 207 & 336 are green cloth with gilt titles on spine. No. 553 is red cloth with paper labels on spine: these labels state "Charles Paul de Kock Book Title Artists' Edition". Nos. 747 & 913 are red cloth with paper labels on spine: these labels simply state "Charles Paul de Kock Author's Edition" with black printed book title.

Quis Separatbit and the date 1783 making this owner a standing member of the Order of Saint Patrick founded by George III in 1783 specifically for the Irish aristocracy who in many cases supported the Catholic Irish rights some of course did not.

Provenance: signature of the bibliophile Douglas Grant in pencil to front fly-leaf. Wither to Prior 941. Grolier English 100 27. First Collected Edition the "most sumptuous ever published. It contains all the poems which had hitherto appeared to which the editor has added four new . . . Waller's letter are added for the first time and the various prefaces to the earlier editions are reprinted. Finally the information given in the notes is so full and accurate that little has been left to the research or correction of later editions." Wither to Prior Waller's poems were widely read during the late seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries. "Dryden who greatly admired Waller and consistently treated him as mentor and precursor claimed that ‘the well-placing of words for the sweetness of pronunciation was not known till Mr. Waller introduced it.' . . . When neo-classical canons of correctness fell out of fashion in the nineteenth century Waller's poetic reputation plummeted and it has never fully recovered though . . . renewed interest in court culture and in the intersection of literature and history toward the end of the twentieth century has led to a modest Waller revival."
