About this Item
Description:
12 pages, printed in double columns. Extracted from the monumental Complete Collection of State Trials , a cornerstone of British legal and political history, this report documents proceedings involving treason, sedition, and other pivotal offences. Originally compiled to serve both as a legal reference and a vehicle of political discourse, the series shaped contemporary and subsequent understanding of justice, authority, and dissent. This particular offering is a disbound trial report: all leaves are loose, unsewn, and without binding. The generously sized sheets on which these trials are printed offer particular pleasure to the eye and hand, bearing clear signs of their handmade origin: chain lines and wire impressions from the mould are readily visible, several pages display watermarks, and the paper varies subtly in thickness, all characteristic of 18th century rag paper. Size: 30 x 48 cms, 12 x 19 inches approx. Quantity Available: 1. Category: State Trials; State Trials::Large Folio; Printed before 1800; Inventory No: 231863. This item may require more postage than the rates shown for delivery outside the UK. If extra postage is required we will contact you before processing your order and you will be given the details and option to decline the extra cost.
