In den Warenkorb2pp, 12mo. Bifolium. In good condition, lightly aged. Corner of second leaf cut away on opening of letter, and still adhering to wafer. Folded twice. Addressed to 'W. Upcott, Esq.' Upcott has been 'so kind as to invite Mr Fields and me to spend an evening with you in going over some of your Literary treasures', and Rodd has 'an…indistinct idea of some particular evening being named' by Upcott. In the hope that the present evening was not intended, he asks Upcott to send word of which evening will suit his convenience. In a long postscript Rodd expresses the hope that - should the present evening have been intended for the meeting - Upcott will excuse Rodd's forgetfulness, 'and impute it to the right cause the [having?] of one's thoughts in a Sale-room, added to which I had been travelling all the previous night'. Rodd was highly regarded for his knowledge and fair dealing. He issued several catalogues of Americana. 'Mr Field [sic]' was presumably James Thomas Fields (1817-1881) of the celebrated Boston firm Ticknor and Fields, who started in the trade at the age of fourteen, and whose name was 'Field' until later in life.

In den Warenkorb2pp, 12mo. Bifolium, addressed on reverse of second leaf to 'Messs. Cadell & Davies'. In good condition, lightly aged, with thin strip of paper from mount adhering to one edge. An interesting document, providing an insight into the world of Georgian publishing. Without preamble or salutation, reads: 'This work, in point of style…, composition, & sentiment everything, in short, in which the writer's merit is concerned, is much below mediocrity. But whether its subject, & the side it takes in party, might not at the present moment gain it some public favour, is what I cannot answer. The author certainly conceives it to be a happy stroke at the times; & he has done all in his power by a full portion of political bigotry to make it suit its purpose. From the slight examination I have given it, it appears to contain nothing new in a historical view. | J. A.' From the distinguished autograph collection of the psychiatrist Richard Alfred Hunter (1923-1981), whose collection of 7000 works relating to psychiatry is now in Cambridge University Library. Hunter and his mother Ida Macalpine had a particular interest in the illness of King George III, and their book 'George III and the Mad Business' (1969) suggested the diagnosis of porphyria popularised by Alan Bennett in his play 'The Madness of George III'.

In den WarenkorbSingle sheet folio broadside, oval engr. port., letterpress text within black mourning border; short tear neatly repaired at right margin. Approx. 43 x 27cm. Framed & glazed. The BM records two examples. The first (BM 1929,0416.14) is almost identical to our copy but with the correct spelling of Independent in the title. The sec…ond (BM 1917,1208.3477) includes two additional engravings to either side of the portrait. The imprint in both issues in the BM are slightly shorter in length that the present example which extends almost to the edges of the mourning border. Presumably this was an early issue, with the spelling swiftly corrected. Neither Copac or OCLC record any copies of this variant.
