LUCRECE
EIGHTH EDITION, 1655. No. XXXIX. Edinburgh University. Nos. XL. and XLI. Britwell copies.
There is a copy in the University Library at Edinburgh, without the frontispiece, and two copies without the title-page are at Britwell; one of the latter formerly belonged to Richard Heber.
'Notices of other imperfect copies without the frontispiece appear in sale catalogues. In the 'Bibliotheca Anglo-Poetica' (1815), a catalogue of rare books on sale at Messrs. Longmans, of Paternoster Row, a copy is priced at £1 10s. od. but no particulars of its condition are given. One was sold at the Utterson sale in 1852, for four guineas (without frontispiece and the bottom line of title cut off); another at the Frederick Perkins' sale in 1889, bound by Roger Payne, for £3 6s. od.; a third, belonging to Halliwell-Phillipps, bound by Bedford in morocco, was sold at the sale of his library, July 1, 1889, to Raglan for £22 0s. od. At two miscellaneous sales at Sotheby's, on June 18 and December 4, 1902, respectively, the frontispiece and title-page were sold detached from the volume. On the first occasion they were bought for £13 10s. od. by Mr. Gribble, and on the second occasion Messrs. Pearson & Co. were the purchasers for £110.
