1758réf. AQ32900London: s.n. 1758. 21pp 1. A variant issued without half-title or terminal 10pp of company bye-laws. Contemporary navy wrappers. Extremities worn and marked. Central vertical fold. Very occasional early manuscript annotations. A mid-eighteenth-century reissue of the rules and orders for the good government of the Bank of England; including the charter of incorporation issued by King William III and Queen Mary II on July 27th 1694. One wonders whether the republication of the charter in 1758 may have been occasioned by the execution of Stafford linen draper Richard Vaughan following his conviction for the forgery of a Bank of England note; the first conviction of its kind.
