1802WRCLIT41445Edinburgh: Printed by Mundell & Son 1802. 24pp. Small octavo. Sewn into somewhat later plain wrappers. A few minor corner nicks wrappers split at spine trivial foxing otherwise a near fine copy. First edition first printing of the first separate publication by the son of the biographer. In addition to Alexander's original verse and adaptations which the DNB describes as "very graphic full of Scotch humour but coarse at times" the collection prints for the first time James Boswell's poem "Song to an Irish Air." This edition is quite rare and the collection is most commonly known through the 1803 second edition published under the imprint of Manners & Miller paginated at 34pp. Pottle treats James Boswell's appearance based on the 1803 edition noting that edition "seems to be very scarce. I have met with only one copy that in the New York Public Library." An OCLC search as of 2013 records eight copies of the 1803 second edition and four copies of this edition Yale Harvard McMaster and Nat'l Library of Scotland.
