1798Best.-Nr. 142573London: Printed and Published for the Author by George Cawthorn British Library No. 132 Strand 1798. 40pp. Narrow octavo 140 mm x 230 mm. Paper wrappers with black text and a small engraving to the front. String-tied. Some soiling along the edges of the wrappers as well as edgewear and a few closed tears that have been professionally repaired. A very good copy of an incredibly scarce item. Written by Edmund Spenser "the Younger"--not the Spenser who wrote the great allegorical epic poem "The Faerie Queen" in 1590. This play is based off of the seventeenth issue of the serial The Spectator; this serial devoted numerous issues to the topic of so-called "Ugly Clubs" a social club who would apparently only admit members with unappealing facial features. This play is very scarce with no other copies listed for sale at the time this one was catalogued nor any relevant auction records.
