First edition. 38pp. Later half-calf, marbled boards, lettered in gilt. A trifle rubbed. Recent book-label of Anne and F. G. Renier to FEP, very small hole to text of leaf B5 - without loss of sense, very occasional pencilled annotation/highlighting. A rare survival of an address by a collective of Edinburgh-based tradesmen and…residents professing loyalty to the king and constitution. The petitioners are presumably addressing George III in the wake of the Scottish Intervention of 1820 or Radical War, a week of civil unrest and strikes led by workers calling for democratic reforms. The lengthy list of signatories (p.3-38) is comprised of a diverse grouping of merchants, including numerous booksellers, such as Charles Guthrie, William Blackwood, and James Innes, and bookbinders John Walker and Robert Miller. COPAC records copies at two locations (Glasgow and NLS). Size: 8vo.
