Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Bibliographical Catalogue of Books Privately Printed: Including Those of the Bannatyne, Maitland and Roxburghe Clubs, and of the Private Presses at Darlington, Auchinleck, Lee Priory, Newcastle, Middle Hill, and Strawberry Hill This attempt to describe a peculiar class of books in the literature of our country, has long engaged the Editors attention; and although it comprises several of little interest, except to the writers and to their immediate connexions, it will be found to contain many of considerable value, highly worthy the attention of those who take an interest in the study of the history, antiquities, and topography of their country. By privately printed books, the Editor means to designate such only, as were not intended by the writers for sale, and the circulation of which, has been confined entirely to their friends and connexions, or to those who took an interest in the matter contained in them. The difficulty of distinguishing such, will be easily understood by those who have paid any attention to the collecting books of this kind; and amongst the number herein enumerated, it is very probable that some will be found with a doubtful claim to appear in this catalogue. Again, it is exceedingly difficult to distinguish between books secretly, and privately printed; - with the former, the Editor has not interfered, as they were to all intents and purposes printed for sale, and consequently foreign to the object he had in view.
