London: J. Harris, 1806. 59pp. Engraved hand-coloured frontispiece showing St. Paul’s Cathedral and the shop window of John Harris’s bookshop, plus 47 finely hand-coloured engraved plates of cries. Contemporary half calf gilt over marbled boards. 12mo in sixes. Bookplate of Nathan of Churt. Cracked at inner joints; small repair to the head of spine; else a very good copy of this rare Cries. Not in Osborne, or Oppenheimer; Gumuchian 1939, now the Lily Library copy.. Moon 173[3]. Although Mrs. Moon does not take issue with the publisher’s claim that this is a ‘tenth edition’, this claim is confusing to say the least. The work was first issued by F. Newbery in 1771 ( no know copy), but the plates were completely different. When Harris took over from Elizabeth Newbery, just as he did with many titles he had inherited, he republished this work, but with new and contemporary illustrations. He also issued a similarly titled work in parts. So far as we can ascertain however, there is only the one single volume edition of 1804 with these precise illustrations that precedes this 1806 printing.
