Boswell James
THE LIFE OF SAMUEL JOHNSON LL.D. COMPREHENDING AN ACCOUNT OF HIS STUDIES AND NUMEROUS WORKS.
Dublin: Printed by John Chambers & John Exshaw & Robert Rhames for second and third volumes respectively for R. Cross et al. 1792. Three volumes. xxxiv536;2605;573pp. plus two folding plates. Contemporary speckled calf spines gilt extra gilt green morocco lettering pieces. Occasional minor soiling narrow crack at toe of lower joint of 2nd volume narrow short worm track largely marginal but touching a few letters in 2Q of 2nd volume but a very good crisp set in a handsome contemporary binding. First Dublin edition set up from the first London edition and incorporating corrections to some of the errata but introducing other errors. Though undertaken for the same group of booksellers the task of printing was doled out to three separate printers with consequent variations in the imprint. An unusually nice set of this edition noted by Pottle as "cheaply and rather poorly printed evidently to undersell the genuine edition which must however have been nearly if not quite exhausted when it appeared. It is now listed by the booksellers as 'very rare' which is perhaps justified as there is no copy in the British Museum the Bodleian or the National Library of Scotland" - Pottle. As this edition predated the second London edition by almost a year its appearance had no doubt a considerably greater effect on the sales of that edition than it had on the first. Pottle's collation places the "Round Robin" plate as a frontis to the first volume; in this set it appears in company with the manuscript facsimile at the end of the third perchance as issued. POTTLE 80. ESTC T64484. Printed by John Chambers [& John Exshaw, & Robert Rhames for second and third volumes respectively] for R. Cross, et al. unknown
