Sobre este artículo
London: John Crump, 1680 A fair copy of the 'Second Edition Corrected and much Enlarged. Whereunto is added His Character, and A compleat Catalogue of all the Honours conferr'd by him on several Persons.' First published in 1660, this is a largely sympathetic view of Cromwell and has been attributed to Henry Fletcher and William Roybould who are listed as the publishers for the 1st edition. This copy has been rebound, probably in the early 1800's, as there is a signature of William Hall, June 3rd 1826, on the first new initial blank. It lacks the frontispiece but is otherwise complete. The half leather binding has raised bands to the spine and gilt tooled decoration. There is a title label (part rubbed) and a stamped date to the base. The spine has some wear to joints and the base but is sound. The boards have scuffing and wear to corners and little scuffing to the marbled suface. The endpapers are marbled. Contents: 2 initial blanks (1800's); title page in red and black ink; dedication 4pp; text pp 1-280; his character pp 280-283; blank; Catalogue of Honours pp 285-294; Finis; 2 final blanks (1800's). The title page is very browned with repair to base (and the remains of sellotape staining at the base); large dark stain to the top margin of the first text page, affecting some text to verso, but not generally obscuring text, except where there is an old sellotape stain; small piece missing from the bottom margin of the same page; text pages with general browning and intermittent stain to top margin, sometimes affecting page title but not text. Paper quality is generally poor. Please enquire if you would like to see additional images.
