A handsome copy. $750. * Second and final edition, a reprint of the first 1766 edition with an additional chapter. Born in London and educated in Dublin, Quin was a successful actor famous for his performances and infamous for twice killing his opponents in duels. The first of these duels took place in 1717 with his fellow actor William Bowen, who had instigated the fight; Quin was convicted of manslaughter but was not severely punished and continued his career. The second was a quarrel about the pronunciation of the name "Cato" which resulted in Quin killing the other man in self defense. Again, Quin's career was not derailed by the events, and he continued to perform for many years. Our copy of his biography is extensively extra-illustrated with an additional 55 illustrations of Quin, his colleagues and friends and other relevant historical figures and locales. John C. Runkle [b.1836], who presented it to a friend, was a businessman and important collector, mostly of art.…
