First of 2 volumes in 8vo. pp. xii, 634, [1]. Signatures: [a]5 b2 B-Z8 AA-RR8 SS6. Contains facsimile illustrations. “Received from H&S, 3 Dec. 1896” handwritten on front free endpaper. Bookplate of Harry Buxton Forman on front free endpaper.
Harry Buxton Forman’s copy, lightly annotated. The forger Thomas Wise’s autograph manuscript of the preface, and three of his letters to his partner in crime Buxton Forman concerning essays in the collection (formerly laid in; published in N. Barker and J. Collins, A sequel to An enquiry into the nature of certain nineteenth century pamphlets; the forgeries of H. Buxton Forman & T. J. Wise re-examined. London, 1983), are catalogued separately (see Bib#s 4103558-60/Fr#s 861-64 in this collection). These letters are part of the correspondence that John Carter and Graham Pollard were forbidden to quote from in 1934, and which incriminates both forgers beyond dispute.
