PROVINCIAL BOOKSELLERS. A PURPOSE of ray own recently led me to examine a collection of more than 2,000 volumes of pamphlets. So many of them bore the names of booksellers at other places than London, Oxford, and Cambridge, that I made brief notes of them, shown on the subjoined list. It has its value as evidence of the literary condition of the provinces, chiefly in the eighteenth century. I am conscious that I did not gather all that I might have done, and the local bibliographies would easily supply many more. The few names of 1633 are taken from 'Documents relating to W. Prynne,' Camd. Soc., p. 60.
