No Binding. Condition: Very Good. Cowgate, Edinburgh: Ruthven & Son, Printers, no date, but c.1840-1850. Single sheet, 27 x 22.5 cm. approx. §Broadside announcing the commencement of James Hewat in business in the former premises of Mr. Tait, wine-merchant. The names Hewat and Tait crop up with regularity as shop-keepers in nine…teenth-century Edinburgh. What may be the same James Hewat can be found as a baker at Coal Hill, 1804; as grocer, Canongate 1810, where one Walter Tait had a shop in 1808. A John Tait was set up as a spirit dealer in the city by 1821; and J. & W. Tait ran a business there as 'grocer & spirit dealer', c.1835. By 1845-46, the business of George Hewat - an apparent relation or descendant of James Hewat - was 'Wine and Spirit Merchant to HRH Prince Albert'. Not at National Library of Scotland, Edinburgh University, not in NUC, etc. Pleasantly creased around edges, several old horizontal folds, slight discoloration. In very good condition.
