1768Best.-Nr. 26070London:: J. Ridley. Full leather binding. 12mo xxxii 287pp.contemporary errata page. Full leather with raised bands to spine. Gilt titles to red spine label. Gilt dentelles. Two armourial bookplates: firstly that of Robert Shafto d.1780 of Benwell in Northumberland and secondly that of his son-in-law William Adair. Robert Shafto was a distant cousin of the Robert Shafto MP 1732-1797 of whom the folk song ' Bobby Shafto' is believed to refer. However some sources Thomas & George Allan in Tyneside Songs and Readings 1891 believe Robert Shafto 1760–1781 of Benwell was the inspiration - he was the son of the owner of this book. Either way the Shafto family with their strong Northumberland and Co. Durham connections make this volume of particular interest to those with interest in NE England. Most of the prelim is taken up with The Classic poem. The text is in English. Front hinge split and held only by one cord rear hinge tender. Though the binding is rather fragile the gatherings remain tightly bound and square. Pages show some age toning to the very edges more so towards the beginning and end of the text block. Starting to crack vertically down the middle of the spine. Prelims are unevenly tanned. Rubbed to edges with the tips of the board showing to two corners. Some slight scuffing to the surface of the leather. Fair copy . Hardback. 1768. J. Ridley hardcover

Referenced by: Gaskell 181 - The Foulis Press ; ESTC T085607 "Anacreon 582 BCE�485 BCE was a Greek lyric poet born in Teos an Ionian city on the coast of Asia Minor. He likely moved to Thrace in 545 BCE with others from his city when it was attacked by Persians. He then moved to Samos to Athens and possibly again to Thessaly seeking a safe place to write his poems as his patrons including Polycrates tyrant of Samos and Hipparchus brother of Athenian tyrant Hippias kept being murdered. It is unknown where Anacreon died though he lived to the unusually advanced age of 85. Glasguae [ Glasgow ] : Excudebant R. & A. Foulis, M.DCC.LI. [1751] . hardcover
1791Best.-Nr. 8328Parma : In Aedibus Palatinis typis Bodonianis 1791. 8vo pp. iv cxviii 2 111 1. Engraved portrait medallions on title-page and following leaf. Slightly later vellum boards bordered with gilt rolls spine divided by gilt rolls black morocco label other compartments gilt in a diaper pattern watered silk endpapers edges gilt. Some light foxing. Vellum slightly soiled a touch of wear to head of spine. A pleasant copy of Bodoni’s more elegant printing of Anacreon from 1791. Bodoni often produced more than one edition of a text at the same time experimenting with different formats and types. In 1791 he printed this edition as well as a smaller 16mo of the same text but only this version of the two was printed entirely in capital letters. ‘The editions of 1785 and 1791 are printed in capital letters and more elegant and exquisitely finished productions cannot be conceived’ Dibdin.
