The engravings were commissioned by John Linnell on March 25 1823. Despite the date 1825 on the engravings the plates were not actually issued until March 1826. The entire edition consisted of 315 sets: 150 "Proof" sets on India paper and sixty-five on French paper were printed in March 1826 at which time the word "Proof" was removed from the plates and 100 sets were printed on drawing paper see Bentley. Blake's original copperplates remained in the possession of the Linnell family and as late as 1863 Linnell was offering for sale sets of the India-paper and French-paper issues. By 1874 these must have been sold as a further 100 sets of the engravings were printed at that time the present copy is from this set. No more pulls were taken between 1874 and 1919 when the copperplates were given by Herbert Linnell to the British Museum. Linnell's son wrote "My father considered the plates at the last 1874 were as good as they ever were for the work being cut by a graver and not etched it is durable- and is not worn by the printing as is the case with an etching."

Very Good with light wear discoloration to rear board and bumping to corners. Bertram Cope's Year is the first mainstream American novel to depict a homosexual relationship. The established writer Henry Blake Fuller tried several commercial publishers before resorting to a friend with a small press to get his comic novel in print. Despite the discretion with which Fuller handled his theme the book was received uneasily by reviewers and sold poorly. The disappointed author burned the manuscript and unsold copies and first editions are consequently scarce. Ralph Fletcher Seymour unknown books
