More Broad Grins Or Mirth Versus Melancholy.
London: Printed by J. Compton Middle Street Cloth Fair For John Lowndes 25 Bow Street Covent Garden 1819. F’cap 8vo in half-sheets; wood-engraved frontispiece and vignette on title; final blank; pp.iv66ii; contemporary full calf ruled and tooled gilt and blind on sides; marbled end-papers. Front board detached and spine lacking; without the frontispiece; otherwise a nice copy. An ‘Advertisement’ on the verso of the dedication leaf says that ‘The first seven Comic Tales.are the productions of a Gentleman well known in the dramatic world. The remaining pieces in the Volume are by a different hand.’ A pencilled note dated ‘16/12/22’ which appears to be in real lead and hence 1822 identifies the authors as J.A. Planché and George Daniel. The original ‘Broad Grins’ on which this is parasitic was by George Colman the younger. It was originally published in 1802 but it was the appearance of a seventh edition in 1819 that prompted the present volume. The frontispiece here lacking occurs in two states plain and hand-coloured. All books listed by Robert Temple are first editions unless otherwise stated. hardcover
