The Work of Bruce Rogers 370; Stark Books Designed by Bruce Rogers p. 10; Rogers Paragraphs on Printing p. 72: "If the style of typographic treatment was ever unmistakably indicated by the content it was in this instance. Boswell and Baskerville were contemporaries and had these papers been published during Boswell's lifetime they might well have appeared in something like their present form though perhaps not so luxuriously printed. The modern Baskerville type seemed by all odds the logical one to use." Laid in are: the prospectus in original red wrappers with paper label on upper cover; announcement of Scott's passing and Pottle's taking up the mantel in original red wrappers with gilt title on upper wrapper; two letters to the writer and critic Harry Hansen from J. B. Orrick and Frederick Pottle along with Hansen's typescript review of the second wave of papers discovered at Malahide; a signed typescript letter from Isham to accompany the announcement of Pottle's entry into the project; and an order form. <br/><br/> William Edwin Rudge hardcover books

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. We note one copy at auction in recent years: Sotheby's Sept 28 1979 lot 374 £1400 $3066.00 to Quaritch. POTTLE POSTHUMOUS PUBLICATIONS 3 1803 edition. NCBEL III:368.
