Description
28, 31-78, 75-82 p., [2] leaves of folded plates ; 2°.
Note
bb Hanson describes two "editions", this one with final pagination "82" due to a pagination error, and one with 86 p. (ESTC T18742). However, the setting (with the exception of the first letterpress table) and signature positions appear to be the same throughout. Pagination positions vary, as do the position and presence of press figures (numbers and letters). One catchword difference noted; catchword on p.53 "(N22.) Abstract." ESTC T18742 has "22 Abstract"

Dated on title page verso: "Die Veneris, 26 Februarii, 1702"; dated at end: "11th of Febr. 1702/3"

With two folded letterpress tables. The first, '(No 1.) Loans on the second four shilling aid.' is paginated "29", blank on verso, signed "H" and is inserted after leaf G2. This setting has press figure "9" close to the inner margin on the direction line, and is different from that of ESTC T18742. The second table, '(No 6.) An account of the sums issued out of the excise, customs, and other branches of the civil list, ...' is paginated "72", blank on verso, signed "T2" and is inserted between leaves T1 and T2. In this catalogue record the tables have been omitted from the pagination and signatures
