Unrecorded early 19th-century piece documenting the oaths and corporation regulations of the London Vintners Company. The origins of the Worshipful Company of Vintners are rather obscure, there are 12th-century references to London merchants fixing the price of wine, though the first concrete date associated with this particular Livery Company is 15th July 1362, the day on which they were granted their first official charter. The Company thrived in a medieval economy heavily reliant upon the wine trade, though their importance and influence gradually waned from the 16th-century onwards, and their duties were much curtailed in the reign of James I. A new royal charter would not be granted until 1973. Folio, single bifolium watermarked "Hagar & Son, 1829", (398 x 252 mm), letterpress to first and third pages, docket title verso of second leaf. Engraved arms of the company to the first page. Creases where folded in four horizontally, lighter single median vertical crease, small chip to the fore-edge of both leaves, light soiling to the last page with docket title, very good.
