[The dramatick works of William Shakespear [sic]. Volume 2]

General note: Contains six plays, including Macbeth, Othello, Henry IV part one, Titus Andronicus, Measure for measure and The London prodigal. MS note: This is one of the rarest 18th Century editions. It was issued in 7 vols. see B. M. catalogue. Also in separate plays, price 4d with the frontispiece. After Tonson's attack in 1735, the edition appears to have been withdrawn and is now so scarce that after a 20 years' search I have only discovered a few odd plays. W. J. Brassington, Oct. 1906.
