1831rif. 71210London: published by Black Young and Young foreign booksellers to the King 1831. First English edition used by Webster as a template for his 1841 octavo "reprinted by E. H. Barker Esq. of Thetford Norfolk from a copy communicated by the author and containing many manuscript corrections and additions: with an appendix by the editor"; 2 volumes 4to; 20th-century half green straight-grain morocco gilt-titled direct on gilt-paneled spines; title pages a bit foxed vertical crease on the title of volume II; otherwise a very good sound and clean copy preserving the terminal advertisement leaf in volume I. Early 20th-century ownership signature in pencil of Arno Clapham on the least leaf of each volume. One of the scarcest of the early editions of Webster. Of note is the inclusion of Joseph Worcester's "Synopsis of Words pronounced by different Orthoepists" extracted from the American edition of 1829 which was edited by Worcester and published prior to the rift that developed between the two lexicographers. As to the text of the lexicon itself Skeel notes that it "was reworked by the English editor and was not merely a reprinting" which is likely the reason Webster chose it as a model for his 1841 revision. Perhaps there is an article on the relationship between this English edition and the 1841 octavo but I'm not aware of one.

The genuine orthography and pronunciation of words according to general usage or to just principles of analogy. III.

To which are prefixed an introductory dissertation on the origin history and connection of the languages of western Asia and of Europe and a concise grammar of the English language. In two volumes. New York: Published by S. Converse. Printed by Hezekiah Howe. 1828. First edition one of only 2500 copies. Two large quarto volumes 10 3/4 x 8 7/8 inches; 274 x 226 mm. Engraved frontispiece portrait the portrait of Webster painted by S.F.B. Morse by A.B. Durand printed by J.R. Burton. Tissue guard for portrait. With the final leaf of "Additions" and "Corrections" at the end of Volume II which is often lacking. Together with Rare autograph leaf from the original draft of Noah Webster's 1828 American Dictionary of the English Language. One leaf with manuscript in brown ink on recto and verso 8x 10 inches; 250 x 200 mm. This rare manuscript page from his work presents definitions from "Biped" to "Bird." Other words present include "Bipedial" "Bipetalous" "Biquadrate" "Biquintile" "Biradiated" and "Birch." This leaf from Webster's draft manuscript shows his processes of careful editing. For "Birch" he wrote out and then crossed off an entire paragraph that read in part: "This word is probably the same as bark; from the great use of birch barks among savage nations the name was transferred to the tree as was the name of beech to another species of tree." Webster substituted this deleted passage with text nearly identical to what saw print in 1828: "A genus of trees known technically under the name Betula of which there are four or five species; as the white or common birch-the dwarf birch-the Canada birch of which there are several varieties & the black birch." The Pierpont Morgan Library holds most of Webster's manuscript which runs some 450 leaves; however early on leaves from the "A" and "B" sections were separated. All leaves that ever appeared for sale came from A & B. Two volumes uniformly bound in contemporary full dark brown sheep. Spines ruled in gilt with original black and red morocco spine labels lettered in gilt. Marbled endpapers. Edges speckled brown. Some rubbing and scuffing to boards. Corners have been renewed on each volume. Some light dampstaining to portrait leaf just barely touching the engraving. Some dampstaining to endpapers. Overall a very good set with a wonderful manuscript leaf. Each volume housed in a chemise and blue quarter morocco clamshell box.
