Edition Notes
Title in red and black.
Initials; head- and tailpieces.
There were several issues with reset title pages. In this edition the title is not printed within a decorative surround, there is no punctuation after "Nourse" and the word "An" in the imprint has an upper case initial.
Imprint is false. Probably published in Bruxelles. Not the 1st edition, as described by Gillet, but has the same imprint (fictitious) and number of pages. The 1st edition, printed at The Hague, was published in 1762 (not 1753, as sometimes stated, as in Quérard, page 186) Cf. M Gillet, Notice historique et bibliographique sur Chevrier (Académie de Stanislas. Mémoires, 1863, p. [135]-313) ; also Ad. van Bever's ed. of Le colporteur, Paris, 1914.
Errata: p. 221-224.
