Etc. London: Henry Lintot for J. Worrall, 1749. Second Edition. 8vo. Hardback. Good. Two volumes complete – Volume One – [5], ii-viii, 318pp; Volume Two – [10], 319-406, 433-633pp, [31]. Contemporary calf, raised bands, spines in six panels, indistinct paper label to first panels

Worn to extremities with small amounts of loss to leather. Lightly browned internally, small worm track to top margin of second volume, very gradually becoming larger towards the end of the book, catching a couple of letters here and there, but without any real loss of sense

’The Clerk of Assise’s Circuit Companion’ has a separate dated title page on 2Q5r; pagination and register are continuous. The gap in pagination is not noted in ESTC, but it seems to be complete, the catchword is correct, and it corresponds with the example in ECCO

First published in 1738/9
