This choice collection was brought together with great trouble, and during a number of years, by the late Sir Charles Price, regardless of cost. At his sale it produced (with only one more plate) 407. To any one illustrating Dibdin's works it would be invaluable, for it would be quite impossible to make such a collection in these days at even double the cost.

"Of this exceedingly rare volume I have never heard of another perfect copy, except that in the British Museum, which is very poor, though larger in the margins than this. I think it highly probable that this was Herbert's copy, bought by Dr. Farmer at his sale, and by Heber (!) at Dr. F.'s auction, where he was an extensive purchaser." Mr. W.C. Hazlitt's MS. note in this copy. MAGNIFICENT COPY OF LITTA'S GREAT WORK ON FAMIGLIE CELEBRI ITALIANE, del CONTE POMPEO LITTA. Milano, 1819-70. Complete set so far as published (i. e. Nos. 1-163.)

Folio, title and preliminary leaves and a few at the end in fac-simile, morocco extra, gilt edges, by Pratt, 427. A very valuable copy of the precious first edition of Shakespeare. For critical purposes, it is almost of equal value with a perfect copy, which could hardly be had for 5001. or more.
