Contact seller5-star sellerThe Rarest Woodward of All London Is No Place To Be In The Summer WOODWARD, George Moutard (designer). [SANSON, Francis, engraver]. Every Body Out Of Town exemplified in six characteristic prints and illustrative labels [with] Every Body In Town exemplified in six characteristic prints and illustrative labels. London: S.W. Fores…, 1800. Second editions, originally published by Woodward himself in 1794/1796. Quarto (10 1/8 x 8 3/8 in; 259 x 213 mm). Twelve hand-colored engraved plates (9 x 7 1/2 in; 297 x 192 mm), two hand-colored engraved title-pages, each imprinted Feb. 14, 1800, and mounted on fourteen quarto sheets (133/4 x 18 1/4 in; 349 x 470 mm) of various colors. Four blank leaves at rear, folded blank quarto sheet inserted in rear pocket. Bound in contemporary full maroon morocco, with double gilt fillets enclosing extravagantly blindstamped covers with an outer frame of floral and foliate motifs, volutes, curls, with bacchants along lower edge, an inner rolled frame, and a central panel with center lozenge within an elaborately blocked medallion. Pocket to rear cover. Astonishingly bright, clean and very fine. Housed in a felt-lined, half maroon morocco over gray cloth clamshell case, spine with five raised bands, ruled and lettered in gilt in compartments. OCLC records one copy of the 1800 edition of Every Body Out of Town and only two copies of the 1800 edition of Every Body In Town in institutional holdings worldwide. Not found in the British Museum's collection of satirical prints. According to the ABPC Index, the last time either title came to auction was in 1942 ((Every Body Out of Town, 1800) and 1923 (Every Body In Town, 1800). These 1800 reprints are rarer than the original issues. They are also larger than the 1794-1796 first issues, which measured only 7 7/8 x 6 5/8 inches (200 x 170 mm). Of George Murgatroyd Woodward (1760?-1809), caricaturist and author, the DNB notes that he, "later known as Mustard George, grew up in a Derbyshire town, living with his father and, to judge by the evidence of his later writings, received a sound education. He took early to caricature, ridiculing his neighbours in Derbyshire; a folio of these drawings dated 1781 is in the Derby Local Studies Library, among a sizable collection of his prints, drawings, and book illustrations. His caricatures having caused something of a local stir, he persuaded his father to let him seek his fortune in London. "Apart from two caricature prints dated 1785 designed by Woodward and published by him from 28 Cary Street, Lincoln's Inn, London, it was not until 1790 that he made an impact on the London scene. Thereafter his output was copious. The British Museum catalogues list 525 examples of his work from the next twenty years, published by Holland, Fores, Ackermann, and latterly Tegg, all leading printsellers. These prints, designed by Woodward, are etched by others-Rowlandson, who was his friend and drinking companion, Isaac Cruikshank, Roberts, and Williams. Woodward's original drawings are vigorous. [and] his value lay in his humorous ideas. "Woodward.might have rivalled Hogarth. Certainly his collaboration with Rowlandson constituted a lively, if frivolous, commentary on the social scene. Dorothy George described him as 'original, prolific, varied, humorous and good-humoured,' and few students of the subject would dispute her conclusion that his death was 'a loss to caricature' (George, English Political Caricature, 1.174)" (Simon Heneage, 'Woodward, George Murgatroyd [1760?-1809)] Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Oxford University Press, 2004). Etcher and engraver Francis Sanson was active 1784-1799. Bobins IV, 1365; Gordon Library BC28, BC29; Not in Abbey or Tooley.

Contact seller5-star sellerThree of George Moutard Woodward's Hand-Colored Prints from "Symptoms of the Shop" WOODWARD, George Moutard, artist, SANSON, Francis, printmaker. Symptoms of the Shop. London: S.W. Fores, 1801. First edition. Quarto (10 1/8 x 8 1/16 inches; 257 x 265 mm.). Three (of twelve) hand colored 'Satirical' stipple engravings on wove pap…er drawn by Woodward and etched by Sanson (numbers 7, 8, and 10). Each with the plate number at the top right margin and with lithographed text at the top of the image. On each of the lower margins is "Pub. June 1st 1801 by S.W. Fores No.50 Piccadilly Prints and Drawings lent on the plan of a Library Folio's of Caricature lent out for the Evening." / Symptoms of the Shop" / "Drawn by G. Woodward Etchd by F. Sansom". Some light marginal soiling, otherwise near fine. Plate #7. "After all there is nothing like the true old orthodox principles." Plate #8. "I have brought your Honor home your new suit." Plate #10. "Madam - I was once a Minister and used to negotiations." Very rare. According to OCLC there are only two complete set in libraries and institutions worldwide (The Lewis Walpole Library, CT. has a complete colored set, Princeton, NJ also has a complete set but does not mention 'colored'). Yale university has nine of the twelve colored plates (missing numbers 1, 7 & 8). Harvard, MA has one plate. These two artists previously collaborated on Every Body in Town (BC-28), Every Body Out of Town (BC-29), and Pigmy Revels: All Alive in Lilliput (BC-62), all published by Fores. Each plate depicts two persons engaged in humorous wordplay relating to the characteristics of a trade or calling. (William Gordon. A catalogue of the Books, Drawings, Prints and Periodicals forming the William A. Gordon Library of British Caricature). The three images present here include: Plate 7. A man, sitting in a wooden chair, lifts his hand for emphasis, and declares: "After all there is nothing like the true old orthodox principles." An obese clergyman, in a padded armchair on the right, responds: "Orthodox principles - ah my dear friend, you put me in mind of old times - when I was but a simple vicar. How I used to charm my congregation - slim as a Bedles wand - & delicate as a new wash'd surplice, - but since I have been raised to higher dignities, I do nothing, but remain in my chair; bulky & unweildy as a Folio Church Service. - oh how elegantly I used to manage my discourses - fifteen minutes to a point, by the clock under the gallery - never exceeded - short praye, - text - and devision - one - two - three & away - that was my method." Plate 8. A man with a parcel under his arm bows slightly and says: "I have brought your Honor home your new suit." A stout, bespectacled lawyer replies: "Suit - ah - Mr. Buckram you did not know me when I practiced in the Courts - I could have shewn you suits that would have puzzled Judge Blackstone himself - none of your simple matters - brim full of Law, as a brief bag - intricate as the Temple avenues, -& long as Westminster Hall - Shy Clients sometimes, - but it would not do with Paul Parchment - sure to have them on way or other. - Once in never out that was my motto." Plate 10. A former Minister, holding his hat, wearing a bag-wig, and with his pocket filled with scrolls, addresses a woman: "Madam - I was once a Minister, and used to Negotiations, I shall therefore be happy to treat with you on Matrimonial Speculation - I have ample credentials ready to ratify my powers, and if you please will enter into preliminaries immediately, - but let me have a sight glance at your project, and be assured I will deliver to you my contre projet as soon as the definitive treaty is concluded, and duly guaranteed." The woman, who is short and plump, looks aghast at the proposition.
