Edition Notes
An imitation of The tour of Doctor Syntax in search of the picturesque / William Combe ; engravings by Thomas Rowlandson. Cf. Doctor Syntax / H.W. Hamilton. 1969. p. 318.
Originally published as: The adventures of Doctor Comicus, or, The frolicks of fortune / by a modern Syntax. Cf. English books with coloured plates, 1790-1860 / R.V. Tooley. no. 431.
The makeup of this ed. follows Tooley 431, save for the absence of Tooley plates 11 and 15, the appearance of Tooley plates 10 and 14 at pages 114 and 176, and the inclusion of an untitled plate (Tooley 11?) at p. 210. In each case the plates relate to the text at the page of insertion.
Added engr. t.p., colored.
