Add to basketUNIQUE COPY. Two volumes, complete for 1825 with anonymous author's founding comments in the first issue, No. 1 March 3, 1825 through No. XII & XIII, August 4 1825. Volume 2: No. XIV Thursday August 18, 1825 through No. XIII December 1825. Bound in 3/4 red morocco, with lightly rubbed marbled boards and bright marbled endpapers. Bookplate of Scottish Antiquary Arthur D(avid) Morice. Remnants of library pocket and slip on endpapers. No other marks. Extensive sepia ink notes which Morice identifies in a pencil note on the back of a piece of ms. laid in the rear, dated 1885, as being copied from the interleaved notes of the publisher's own copy (publisher and and probable author), Lewis Smith. There is another signature, which is in the same ink as the notes, which signature "Isaac F. Smith "1895" appears on a free front endpaper adjacent to No. I.The transcribed notes are identified by page reference and cover all available spaces on free front and end papers, with an additional page laid in, upon which Morice has noted their origin. A few other pencil notes by Morice are in the text, and a few additional ink notes in the original hand in text and on rear end paper of volume 1. It is not entirely clear if the notes, which are in two different ink colors, were originally transcribed by Lewis or Isaac Smith, the date being quite late for the latter. An UNIQUE COPY. The Aberdeen Censor appeared 3 years before Johnson's London Spectator.
