Wonderful book to share with children or if you love classic English literature, this one is for you! ~ About the story: "Cinderella", or "The Little Glass Slipper", is a folk tale with thousands of variants that are told throughout the world. The protagonist is a young girl living in forsaken circumstances that are suddenly changed to remarkable fortune, with her ascension to the throne via marriage. The story of Rhodopis, recounted by the Greek geographer Strabo sometime between 7 BCE and 23 CE, about a Greek slave girl who marries the king of Egypt, is usually considered to be the earliest known variant of the Cinderella story. ~ About the series publisher: George Routledge and Sons: The firm originated in 1836, when the London bookseller George Routledge published an unsuccessful guidebook, The Beauties of Gilsland, with his brother-in-law W. H. (William Henry) Warne as assistant. In 1848, the pair entered the booming market for selling inexpensive imprints of works of fiction to rail travellers, in the style of the German Tauchnitz family, which became known as the "Railway Library". ~ The company was restyled in 1858 as Routledge, Warne & Routledge when George Routledge's son, Robert Warne Routledge, entered the partnership. Frederick Warne eventually left the company after the death of his brother W. H. Warne in May 1859 (died aged 37). Gaining rights to some titles, he founded Frederick Warne & Co. in 1865, which became known for its Beatrix Potter books. In July 1865, George Routledge's son Edmund Routledge became a partner, and the firm became George Routledge & Sons.

An attractive Gothic Revival item, tastefully printed in red and black. Printed on nine 13 x 9 cm panels, laid down on a cloth backing opening out to 39.5 x 28 cm; in original 14 x 10 cm printed card cover, with engraved title on front, within a gothic arch. In fair condition: aged and worn in worn and rubbed covers, with small…white circular label on front board. Arranged, appropriately enough, in four columns headed: Name of Style; Reign A.D.; Illustrative Examples; Characteristics. The seven styles are given as: Saxon; Norman; Transition or Semi-Norman; Early English or Lancet; Decorated; Perpendicular Florid or Plantagenet; and Debased. Uncommon: the only copies on COPAC at the British Library, Bodleian and Rylands, with the only other copy of any other edition a copy of the fifth edition of 1844 at York Minster. According to Bedford's entry in the Oxford DNB, such youthful illustrations of 'the ecclesiastical architecture of London and York' as this item are thought to have 'brought him to the attention of the celebrated publishers and lithographers Day & Sons, whose innovative and costly production techniques placed them at the forefront of printing technology. Bedford's role at Day & Sons was to transfer the drawings and designs of artists intended as illustrations directly on to the lithographic stone in preparation for printing, a procedure that was both exacting and highly regarded.'.

The album has an ornate title page, printed in red, with illustration of flowers, branches and a butterfly, together with the word 'Album' and publishers' details. The firm's binder's ticket ('M. W. & CO. / LONDON', 'No. 6192) is at the foot of the rear pastedown. The 36 chromolithographs, each printed on 6.25 x 10.5 cm pieces of white card, are arranged side-by-side in pairs on the rectos of 18 leaves. 22 of the cards are captioned in black copperplate: 1 Adiantum Fern; 1 Birch; 2 Elm; 1 Horn Beam; 8 Maple; 3 Oak; 1 Pear & Plum; 1 Raspberry; 1 Red Maple; 1 Sassafras; 1 Wood-bine; 1 Whortlebury.

Colourful and effective illustrations of leaves with no background illustration, the white of the card nicely setting off the illustration. See Image.

8vo, 2 pp. Good, though a little grubby on the reverse. Printed down the left hand margin of the recto is a long list headed 'Printers and Publishers of Illustrated Guides to'. Printed in large letters at the centre of the letterhead is 'Shropshire: Historical and Biographical', but there is no record of this title being publish…ed, or of any volume on Shropshire by Mates & Sons. From the context it appears that Lumley had a hand in Frederick John Snell's 'Devonshire, historical, descriptive, biographical', published by Mate & Sons in 1907. Lumley acknowledges receipt of the 'Memoir of the late Wm. Hardwicke Esq'. He was 'just on the point of leaving Exeter for Honiton' when it arrived, or would have replied sooner. He promises that the photographs of Turner and Sir Wyke Bayliss will be 'safely & duly returned'. His 'present address in Devonshire' is 'only of short duration untill [sic] all nobility, Members of Parliament &c have been interviewed'.

He also thanks him for putting his name 'in the free list at the adelphi and Haymarket theatres'. He would 'in several instances have made use of the priviledge [sic]' had he been aware of it, and will now do so.

Tinsley Brothers of 8 Catherine Street, Strand, were Ainsworth's publishers during this period. The letter begins: 'Dear Mr. Tinsley, | You are quite incorrigible.'

Engraved advertisement printed in dark blue, light blue and pink on both sides of 20 x 14 cm piece of unwatermarked wove paper. An amusing fake bank note or bond, designed to showcase the firm's competency. The paper stock and layout are entirely consistent with the firm's work. On one side, instead of a picture of a monarch or…president, is the face of a rather imperious young woman (one of the directors' wives?), together with a design featuring the fasces and motto 'VIS UNITA FORTIOR'. The text on that side reads: 'Waterow & Sons Limited / London / Established 1810 / Telegrams / Imprimerie London / Manufacturers of / Bank Notes / Bonds / Stamps / and all other / High-Class Securities / Postage Stamp Printers and Contractors to the British Government.' On the other side is a Landseer-style lion, with a cruiser behind it sailing into the sunset, and the royal crest and the firm's details, with a description of its trade as 'Manufacturers of British, Colonial & Foreign Bank Notes, Bonds, Postage and Revenue Stamps, Share Certificates, Policies of Assurance, Circular Notes, Business Cards, Letters of Credit, Headings for Invoices, Letter and Note Papers, Chequs & Commercial Stationery, etc.' See Image.

[16]pp, 16mo (11.5 x 7.5 cm). Stitched unpaginated pamphlet, tastefully printed with decorative headpiece to title, and the Press's celebrated device to the colophon. A frail survival, aged, worn and spotted, with one corner of last leaf dogeared. At foot of title-page: 'Any volume will be sent on receipt of Postal Order in adva…nce.' Following the title-page are two pages with a history of 'The Chiswick Press. | Founded 1789.' Then a full-page advertisement for 'A Practical Treatise on the Art of Typography', with a full page containing 'Some Press Opinions'. Similar two-page advertisements follow for 'On the Making and Issuing of Books', 'Some Notes on Books and Printing', 'The Printers' Handbook', 'The Printers' Vocabulary' and 'Gesta Typographica'. Scarce: the only two copies on OCLC WorldCat at the Universities of Cambridge and Michigan.

See Blades' obituary in The Times, 25 May 1953 ('Lord Ebbisham | A Notable Lord Mayor of London'). 5pp., 12mo. On five leaves attached to one another through punch holes to a corner. Addressed to 'My Lords and Gentlemen'. In his reply to the toast he wishes to say 'a few words on the subject upon which Lord Reading has just made… such a magnificent speech', i.e. 'the World's Peace'. He speculates on what peace would have been 'dictated to us had the enemy won the war. Doubtless their peace terms are still pigeon-holed in the Foreign Office at Berlin. [] In any case, we should all have been put to much inconvenience. | Just picture to yourselves the horror with which the British printers would have received their orders to set up proclamations and other such-like disagreeable documents in the German type. Well luckily they are saved from the realization of such a nightmare and they can take comfort in the fact that a large staff of British printers are daily busily engaged in producing an excellent English newspaper in Cologne.' He discusses the need to 'repair the devastation of the past 4 ½ years', and the 'formidable task of national and inter-national reconstruction'. A passage on the League of Nations and 'the Worlds peace' is added in pencil, and the speech concludes: 'I am very pleased to see Mr. Hawker and Lieut-Commander Grieve as our guests here to-night, and I am sure that you will all join with me in extending to them both our heartiest congratulations on their very plucky attempt to fly the Atlantic, and on their safe return to England. [] Our very best wishes go to them for better luck next time.' Hawker and Grieve made the first attempt to cross the Atlantic by air. They left St. John's, Newfoundland, on 1 May 1919, and crash landed 1,100 miles of the coast.

This is a document which would certainly repay investigation. No record of this firm of merchants has been discovered, or even of where they traded. Robison is a Scottish name, and there is an undated reference to a 'James Robison, merchant in Dumfries'; most Shuttleworth's hail from the north-east of England, and there is menti…on of a John Shuttleworth in Manchester in 1820. Other clues in the document suggest a London location: in 1793 Napper and Co. were listed as 'Dyers and Callico Printers, Old-street-square'; 'Clayton & Scott' were solicitors of Lincoln's Inn; and in 1810 a John Serrell dissolved his partnership with Charles Lickfold, 'as Carpenters and Builders, and Corn and Coal Dealers, at Camberwell in the County of Surrey'. On one side of a good piece of laid paper, 102 x 68 cm (i.e. three and a third feet by two). Folded six times into a 26 x 17 cm packet, on the front of which is written 'James Robinson Esqre.' In fair condition, with a number of closed tears along the folds (easily repairable, and with no loss of text whatever), and the reverse (the outside of the packet into which it is folded) rather grubby. The accountant William McRea has signed and dated the statement at bottom right. We at least know what the firm traded in: at bottom left are the details of the 'Merchandise': 'Coffee / Spice &c / Hops / Tea / Sugar'. The firm was clearly a substantial concern: the balance to 30 December 1804 was £17, 176 10s 4d. The rest of the document consists of the cash book, with the customary double-entry arrangement of credits and debits, and a list of the accounts of the drawers: William Bennett, James Bradley, Clayton & Scott, Henry Clarke, [Three pr. Cents,] John Hall, [Merchandise,] James Robinson, John Serrell, Thomas Reed, [Sundry Accounts,] John Shuttleworth Private Account, Napper & Co., Elizabeth Reed, [Lease & Fixtures,] Robison & Reed Goods Account, John Shuttleworth Goods Account, Joseph Reed Private Account'.

"[A new treatise on this subject].is very necessary for the justice of the peace [and attorney]. And it is absolutely necessary for the sporting gentleman [and farmer]. Another reason, why a new treatise on the Game-Law is become necessary, is, the multiplicity of new statutes that have been passed, and the cases that have been determined within these passed few years, and which have almost entirely altered the face of the Law with respect to these matters" [iii]. The first edition of this work was published in 1764 and reissued twice, with one issue under the author's name, in 1766. Cunningham was the author of several legal treatises and an important law dictionary. English Short-Title Catalogue N5179. London: His Majesties Law Printers M. Thrush, 1766 (illustratore).
