Plus with an additional full page plate facing p. 586 of vol. III titled "The Prater Vienna". Note: half-page illus. are engraved on fine India paper and mounted. Thomas Frognall Dibdin 1776-1847 born in Calcutta India English bibliographer who helped to stimulate interest in bibliography by his own enthusiastic though often inaccurate books by his share in founding the first English private publishing society and by his beautifully produced catalog of Lord Spencer’s library which collection later became the nucleus of the John Rylands Library Manchester. His father the captain of a sailing ship was the inspiration for his Uncle Charles Dibdin’s song "Tom Bowling." Both of Dibdin’s parents died on the passage from India to England in 1780 and at age four he became the ward of his mother’s younger brother Charles Compton. Educated at St. John’s College Oxford Dibdin began a legal career but took holy orders in 1805. His Introduction to the knowledge of rare and valuable editions of the Greek and Latin Classics 1802 attracted the notice of Lord Spencer through whose patronage Dibdin obtained a clerical appointment in London. His Bibliotheca Spenceriana 1814–15 became famous for the high quality of its printing. Dibdin traveled widely in search of books and manuscripts and his Bibliographical Antiquarian and Picturesque Tour in France and Germany 1821 is typical of his work in containing much lively anecdote many factual errors and some excellent engravings. His Bibliomania 1809 contributed to the public’s interest in old and rare books. Among his many other works is the two-volume autobiography Reminiscences of a Literary Life 1836. - Britannica W. Bulmer and W. Nicol, Shakspeare Press, 1821. Dedicated to the president and members of the Roxburghe Club. unknown books

Early half dark green morocco marbled boards gilt-lettered backstrips a tall untrimmed set with usual occasional foxing or spotting. Bookplates of James Whatman and Charles Sebag-Montefiore. § First edition regular paper issue. One of a very few books by Dibdin that went into a second edition. "The collation is very irregular by reason of the fact that all illustrations in the text being printed on India paper pasted-in are on separately inserted leaves . This Voyage Pittoresque is lavishly illustrated mainly with copperplates after drawings by G.R. Lewis and others. Dibdin says he spent over 7000 pounds on the book being the first patron to pay 100 guineas for a plate . It has been unkindly said of this book that it would have been better without any text. However it does contain a modicum of bibliographical information that is still useful if used with due caution" Jackson. Lowndes notes that it "contains much useful and curious information" on the libraries and private collections of Europe. The second edition of 1829 is abridged and omits all but 5 of the original plates. Jackson 48; Lowndes I 641; Windle & Pippin A38a.

Original pinkish buff boards printed paper labels skillfully rebacked retaining the original backstrips. Binding signed "J. MacKenzie Binder 4 Crown St. Westminster". Bookplate of Charles Sebag-Montefiore. § First edition regular paper copy. Dedicated to Frances Mary Richardson Currer. The dedicatee subscribed for nine copies eight on large-paper. Arthur Freeman has one of these still in original boards and Roxburghe quarter roan inscribed by Dibdin ‘To Miss Currer From the Author April 19.1839. The first copy into boards.’ Jackson states that there were 100 large-paper copies bound in three volumes with a third title-page inserted before p. 815 and with the index at the end of vol.3. The quantity of the regular issue is not known. The Barlow copy in original boards uncut has an eighteen-page Bohn catalogue an octavo and an additional leaf bound at the end of vol.I. ‘I think it belongs there since it is printed by the same printer as the book on what appears to be the same paper.…The unusual thing … is that it appears to be excerpts from a rare book catalogue selected specifically for this book rather than a publisher’s catalogue.’ Barlow in litt. Freeman’s ‘first copy into boards’ has only pp.17-18 the last single leaf of this catalogue bound in at the end. This copy like Barlow's has the entire catalogue.Tipped into vol. 1 is an autograph letter from Dibdin dated 20 November 1848 addressee unknown. "May I venture to solicit your transferring your name from my "Reformation Lectures" which are postponed perhaps sine die to the enclosed work. Perhaps the same favour could be obtained from your Brother" signed T/F. Dibdin. Provenance: Lister; Colin Franklin; Sebag-Montefiore. Windle A65. Printed for the Author.. hardcover books

Dibdin has met him twice at Spencer House ‘where he is now busily employed at his Horatian labours . . . an amiable and worthy man aetatis suae 35 circ. as I judge: with a zeal & diligence in his favourite research beyond anything I ever saw. He was a 12 month at Paris wooing Quintus Horatius Flaccus. I enclose a copy of his Program." We can find no mention whatever of this scholar to Dibdin ‘a celebrated Horatian’ save Dibdin’s.

ALS to an unidentified correspondent.
4to.

The request “in tolerably clean condition†suggests that Dibdin had had them stored and perhaps knew that some had been stained or otherwise soiled. The mystery around this chart has yet to be solved.

Dibdin Thomas Frognall.
ALS to Cadell and Davies.
London: Feb. 6 1798. 4to 4 pp. written in ink. Fold neatly restored in very good condition. § This is one of the earliest and by far the most important Dibdin letters extant. It is fully described and transcribed in Windle and Pippin E2 and it describes Dibdin's first publication "The Whole Law relative to the Rights of Persons" of which no copy is known to survive. For a long time it was the only proof we had that this "chart" was ever printed let alone in colored and uncolored copies. A second letter mentioning the chart was only recently discovered. This letter is to Cadell & Davies publisher of two editions of Blackstone and begins with their comment at the head of the letter lines 1-2:declined - and the 2 Charts sent by his Desire to Mr Clark Portugal Street.Feb. 6. 988 Upper Titchfield St.Fitzroy Sq.Gentlemen I have sent you per bearer two of my law Charts comprehending each the whole Law relative to the rights of Persons which makes up the first Volume complete of Blackstone’s Comries.: I have sent one colour’d and one plain so that you might be able to judge of the advantages and disadvantages attending each: by being coloured of course the expence is increas’d; but otherwise as I humbly conceive it adds much to the Perspicuity of the Work: Supposing you to close in with my Proposals it may possibly be worth your while to take the colouring of them into your consideration: tho’ even without it I think the work would be highly advantageous to any future edition of Blackstone." This letter is archetypal Dibdin and sets the tone for many subsequent transactions with booksellers and publishers. Anthony Lister observed in litt.: ‘It is invaluable because a it reveals Dibdin trying in 1798 to persuade booksellers to market his wares.… b the letter is by far the earliest written by T.F.D. that I have encountered among the hundreds that I have read but see entry A1. c It provides the earliest London address I have for him … ’ Reminiscences pp.190-191 varies in details of the cost and selling prices.

On 3 Sept 1814 defending his hope to take a profit on the ‘Lincoln Nosegay’ enterprise Dibdin wrote to Earl Spencer that he had ‘for the last 7 years never received a single farthing profit upon any article with which I may have accommodated a friend or bookseller’.

Bibliomania; Or Book-Madness; a Bibliographical Romance. Illustrated with cuts. New and Improved edition to which are now added Preliminary Observations and a Supplement including a Key to the Assumed Characters in the Drama.
Tall thick 8vo. London: Bohn 1842. Tall thick 8vo 2 i-vii vii-xiv 618 63 1 xxxiii pp. Full pebbled brown morocco with gilt fillet borders gilt turn-ins gilt-panelled backstrip raised bands gilt top rebacked retaining original backstrip. Bookplate on front pastedown of Francis Frederick Fox and Charles Sebag-Montefiore. § First combined edition large paper copy. The book that introduced the concept of “bibliomania†to the world. “Dibdin's best-known and in the later editions most useful book.†Jackson 19. 500 copies were printed of which 50 according to Huth or 55 according to Church were large-paper. The Huntington and Rabaiotti large-paper copies state 55 copies on plate 2 see above. Bound in white boards in the Huth sale in two volumes. Price 3 guineas and 5 guineas according to Lowndes. A sometimes confusing book. The Grolier Club copy has the 1809 1811 and 1842 prefaces bound at the front; then the 1811 edition precedes the 1809 edition and the indexes are at the end. The 1809 title is often with the text rather than the preliminaries as in Barlow’s copy. The Morgan Library copy is bound in a different order. The Huntington Library large-paper copy with a fore-edge painting of Althorp is as the Grolier Club copy. The second Huntington large-paper copy is bound in four volumes and extra-illustrated with 372 plates including two portraits of Dibdin: a proof of Eldridge’s engraving dated 12 February 1816 and a line engraving after Richmond’s water-color by G. Staal for Le bibliophile français. It is lacking the two-leaf ‘Advertisement.’ There is no separate title to the 1811 edition. Jackson’s pagination conforms to none of these orders. The Bohn sale at Sotheby’s 1868 lot 2636 describes a copy on ‘Large Pink Paper the only copy so printed’ offered again by Sotheby’s on 3 June 1997 library of George Pflaumer; the present owner is Roland Folter. John Priddy has a single-leaf single-sided prospectus to this edition dated April 1838 promising a print date of August not mentioned by Jackson. Windle A 11d. Bohn hardcover books

Bibliotheca Spenceriana or A Descriptive Catalogue of the Books Printed in the Fifteenth Century . in the Library of George John Earl Spencer.
London: Printed for the Author by W. Bulmer Shakspeare Press and published by Longman Hurst etc. 1814-15. 4 vols. 8vo ix lii i 383; 503; 509 3; vii 509 lxxvii pp. with 22 plates including one double-page as called for and numerous additional woodcuts some in red in the text of all four volumes. These woodcut facsimiles are by the Byfield family. Full red morocco gilt dentelles. Bookplate of Ross Winans on the front pastedown of vol. one. Some occasional spotting or foxing especially in vol. 4 upper joint of vol. 4 beginning to split at head generally a very good set complete as issued. § First edition of Dibdin’s great work. Loosely inserted at the front of vol. 1 is a manuscript note from Dibdin: “Subscription for copy of the Bibliotheca Spenceriana herewith sent £8.8. T.F. Dibdin Mar. 31.†500 copies were printed according to the prospectus and most nineteenth-century sources though A.N.L. Munby states that there were 550 copies; the prospectus states 50 copies on large-paper but Dibdin Bibliographical Decameron vol.II p.392 says: ‘There were only 55 copies struck off on Large Paper.’. Regular and large-paper copies collate and paginate identically. In vol.I leaf M4 pp.87-88 occurs in two states both usually found together with and without the engraved facsimile of Polish type; the text of the bottom nine lines of p.87 is reset with the headline in a different type face; and there are minor changes in p.88. Ross Winans 1796–1877 was an American inventor mechanic and builder of locomotives and railroad machinery. He was one of the United States' first multimillionaires. His “small but choice†library Dickinson was bought en bloc by G.D. Smith and sold through various auctions though his copy of the First Folio was last recorded by Lee in the Census and is now unlocated. Windle and Pippin A25. Printed for the Author by W. Bulmer Shakspeare Press and published by Longman unknown books

Dibdin Thomas Frognall.
Typographical Antiquities or the History of Printing in England Scotland and Ireland: containing memoirs of our ancient printers and a register of the books printed by them 1810 begun by the late Joseph Ames; considerably augmented by William Herbert; and now greatly enlarged with copious notes and illustrated with appropriate engravings comprehending the history of English literature and a view of the progress of the art of engraving in Great Britain.
London: William Miller 1810-1812: John Murray 1816: Longman Hurst Rees. Orme and Brown 1819. 4 vols. 4to 285 220 mm. untrimmed 324; 328; 313; 316 leaves paginated as in Windle and Pippin. With 14 mezzotint portraits 24 other engraved plates numerous engravings and illustrations in the text some in red and black titles printed in red and black. Some occasional spotting and dust soiling in text and some offsetting of plates onto the text as always. Full red hardgrain morocco extra covers richly gilt gilt backstrips with green and black labels joints a bit scuffed and upper joint of vol. 1 repaired. Generally a very good set with distinguished provenance. With the index in a separate volume. § First edition thus. “Dibdin's voluptuously copious account of stories and characters connected with book production book trading and book collecting which inspired generations of bibliophiles and bibliographers. The work came as an enlargement of Joseph Ames's account of printing in England from 1471 to 1600 published 1749. Ames's intuition was the prime importance of first-hand knowledge of books the primacy of the title-page on printed lists and catalogues. Dibdin adopted this innovative rigor and endowed it with his own taste for anecdote and romance. The compelling quality of his writings was acutely felt by Isaac D'Israeli who on receiving a copy of Dibdin's Bibliomania wrote to him: "I have not yet recovered from the delightful delirium into which your Bibliomania has completely thrown me." A major player in the process of rationalisation of the book trade and the sharp rise in prices that took place in the middle decades of the nineteenth century Dibdin's flamboyant character is well reflected in Walter Scott's words: 'All bibliomaniacs must remember you long Dibdin as he who first united their antiquarian details with good humored raillery and cheerfulness'. Dibdin's passion for books together with several personally financed lavish publishing undertakings which never provided a worthy return threw him and his family into misery.†Finch. Windle & Pippin A15. In this copy vol. 1 p. 377 reads “377â€; vol. IV page 121 reads “120†335 “533†and 623 “623â€.Provenance: Marquess of Stafford who is listed as a subscriber 1758-July 1833 created 1st Duke of Sutherland in January 1833. Thence by descent to Lord Francis Egerton 1800-1857 created 1st Earl of Ellesmere in 1846. In 1833 this fortunate man inherited the estates houses art collection the Bridgewater Canal and a huge income from his great-uncle the 3rd and last Duke of Bridgewater.

Dibdin Thomas Frognall. Lewis George.
A Series of Groups illustrating the Physiognomy Manners and Character of the People of France and Germany.
London: Arch Triphook and Major 1823. Roy. 8vo t/p list of plates directions for placing the plates engraved dedication advertisement: i.e. 7 1 1-15 pp. 60 illustrations on 52 plates on India paper numbered 1-60. Old polished calf rebacked retaining the original backstrip. Occasional slight spotting generally very good. § A pleasant copy of the volume of engravings that were intended to accompany Dibdin’s A Bibliographical Antiquarian and Picturesque Tour in France and Germany but were famously rejected by Dibdin as unworthy of his book -- hence Lewis issued them himself. He alludes gently to this in the preface but mostly adds commentary to the illustrations here presented. “Lewis presents his case in an eight-page 'Advertisement' separately printed NUC locates only the Harvard copy and W.A. Jackson knew of one other but Korey has located many more including variants. Dibdin refrained from consigning his views to print although he voiced his feelings freely; he did though in his Reminiscences II 685 record his judgment that A Series of Groups 'are clever but they are coarse . I never wish to see them mixed up with their precursors ie. the illustrations for the published Tour - without the slightest personal feeling upon the subject but only from their own distinct individual character; they are a thing apart and should be kept apart.'†The 60 illustrations depict people from across the social spectrum including many uncommon scenes and are perhaps interesting for the same reasons Dibdin found them coarse.

DIBDIN THOMAS JOHN
Portrait of Thomas John Dibdin playwright actor and song writer
London: Drawn etch'd & pub.by Dighton Charing Cross April 1799 1799. The earliest recorded portrait of Thomas John Dibdin. NCBEL III 1129-30. One crease; in fine condition. Rare. Hand-colored etching 20.5 x 16.5 cm with the caption "Sans Souci Jun." With the portrait is the manuscript note: "This Portrait of myself / taken in the palmy days of white neckcloths and frills / when I was as you see rather younger than at present is presented / by Thomas Dibdin April 28 1841." Around the image of Dibdin are depictions of his plays and songs. A fine portrait of the actor and writer Thomas John Dibdin 1771-1841 who like the other famous thespian Dibdins was involved in the English theater from an early age. Thomas John was one of three illegitimate children of Charles Dibdin and actress Harriet Pitt and in his early years on stage he used the name "T. Merchant" and his writings were published anonymously a fact that the artist Dighton makes a playful reference to in giving the subject of his portrait the name "Sans Souci Jun." Charles Dibdin was the owner of the San Souci Theater in London. See the ODNB for both Thomas John and Charles Dibdin. <br/><br/> (London:) Drawn, etch'd & pub.by Dighton, Charing Cross, April, 1799 unknown books

Dibdin says he spent over 7000 pounds on the book being the first patron to pay 100 guineas for a plate . It has been unkindly said of this book that it would have been better without any text. However it does contain a modicum of bibliographical information that is still useful if used with due caution" Jackson.
