Details

Half leather binding. 296pp. Frontispiece with portrait of Shakespeare. The spine is marked with "II", but the volume appears complete in itself, although it differs in content from a recently-advertised 1786 edn. A decorated page between the tp and start of text recognises the influence of the patronage of The Royal Highness George, Prince of Wales on this edition. The leather is rubbed at extremities and back board has been bent, but the binding is sound. Generally clean internally. More details on application.
