1819EXP3-C-1London: J J Stockdale 1819 . Cloth. Good. 8" by 4.5". Charles Williams. A scarce and interesting publication of humorous notes and anecdotes. Written by an anonymous author. Direct from the library of the late Hugh Selbourne MD 1906-1973 a noted book collector and diarist. Illustrations by Charles Williams. Williams was a British caricaturist and was chief caricaturist for S W Fores between 1799 and 1815. The title page states that the text is embellished with humorous coloured plates. The British Library copy shows the illustrated plates as coloured as well as throughout text. To our copy the plates have not yet been coloured and are also bound following the preface. Therefore it is possible that this copy was issued before publishing was complete or it is an early publisher's proof. In a quarter cloth binding with a hand written spine label.
