[DICKINSON, Francis Henry (1813-90).] A list of printed service books, according to the ancient uses of the Anglican Church. London: Joseph Masters, 1850.
4o (217 x 134 mm). 16 leaves. PRINTED ON VELLUM, apparently the only copy. Contemporary gilt-panelled vellum binding. Provenance: A.J.V. Radford (blind-stamp) -- Herbert Reichner (1899-1971, bookseller) -- Lathrop C. Harper Inc. (booksellers, 1881-1990) -- H.P. Kraus (1907-88).
As most early service books were entirely or partly printed on vellum, it is not surprising that the editor of this privately published list should have decided on a vellum issue. Even so, no other vellum copy has been recorded. FINE CONDITION. Besterman 3579.
