1867106101Melbourne: Charlwood and Son Booksellers Stationers and Printers 1867. First Edition. Paperback. Fine. Melbourne Charlwood and Son Booksellers Stationers and Printers July 1867. Duodecimo 167 × 108 mm 4 pages plus the wrappers. Original blue title-wrappers with advertising on all three other sides of the covers; a very fine copy. Trove has enabled us to established beyond doubt the date of publication - Saturday 20 July 1867 - according to the advertisements in the 'Argus' on that and the previous day. Ferguson 9927 noting a curious variant with the four text pages numbered 3-6 as per the digitised Petherick copy available online; in our copy they are numbered 1-4. Gill's magnum opus is still pretty funny contemporary political correctness aside; for that reason we'll skip quoting from the first page and a half. By this stage in the timeline responsible government has been achieved but the Battle of Eureka has yet to be fought thus between January 1851 and December 1854. Here the author 'will pass over a lapse of years during which nothing of any importance occurred - except the introduction of meat or fruit pies all hot and the unlimited consumption of two ales - and come to the period when Charles I. surnamed Hotham ascended the throne'. Accompanying the item is a photocopy of a four-page manuscript key to personalities and events alluded to in the screed; this is originally written signed and presumably compiled by Edward Edgar Pescott 1872-1954 horticulturalist naturalist author bibliographer and book-collector of some consequence.
