Item description from seller

Xii pp + 574 pages with an errata leaf and 11 folding plates inc pollsters chart and 4 full page copper engraved political caricatures after Thomas Rowlandson and possibly James Gillray (the style varies considerably on some plates), these bound in at the rear as a group, the pages 539 to 574 were printed a little later than the 1874 1st edition and this 30+ page section is included here and concerning Charles James Fox and his dealings & the East India Co, the first plate is of "Carlo Khan" (CJ FOX) and his Triumphant Entry into St Stephens Chapel, this might have been from another place as it has 2 vertical fold lines and is a little darker than others, but the offsetting on the recto of the folding chart would indicate it has always been bound in? The binding is a late 19th-early 20th century three-quarter chocolate morocco with the spine relaid and 5 raised bands and gilt titles on the spine, some loss at corners to the leather, drab green plain cloth boards, some foxing to several plates and text, but generally contents are either good+ to very good+. Quarto. 1785. NOTE*. The Hathi Trust has a copy of this with 16 plates but without the supplemental section added to this edition and the British Library copy states they have 17 plates (Including the chart). The other few institutional library copies are either lacking the post-election section or are vague as to how many plates their copies have. Copies (few) online here as we list either have fewer plates or none? SOLD as listed, textually complete with anomalies with the plate numbers.

Description de la boutique

We are a small, single-owner business. We have been operating on and off since 1977 and our stock is varied, leaning towards antiquarian and 19th century with the addition of original aquatint and lithographic, or woodcut engravings. Also maps and Ephemera - in fact, anything interesting on paper really. We have in stock every item we list. We do not use stock photographs, but photograph each item individually. We very rarely use "fine" or "mint" as a description, mainly due to the age and the fact that 99.9% of what we sell has been pre-owned and therefor Fine would not be a term for a book we sell despite its fine-like appearance. We always take items back unreservedly if not in the condition as described. We always try to describe fully.
