NES; J. RASTELL; G. JOYE; and others. To be printed from the _contemporary_ editions. g "Characters," "Essays," and other pieces photographing the "humours" of their time. h The Quarrels of Authors; and notably that between Dr. GABRIEL HARVEY and TOM NASH. i Strange travels; like LITHGOW's _Peregrination_ and CORYAT's _Crudities_. j A few philosophical books: like Sir J. ELIOT's _Monarchie of Man_; J. HALE's _Golden Remains_; T. HOBBE's _Leviathan_; and Bishop J. WILKIN's _Real Character_. k Some "Emblem" books; if their text and illustrations can by _photogravure_ or any like process be reproduced with a satisfactory definition and clearness. II. Though not its main intention--this _OLD SERIES_ will comprise the largest number of forbidden or "obnoxious" English books ever brought together. Of which it will represent books burnt by the Romish hierarchy under Henry VIII; Brownist, Puritan, and _MARTIN MARPRELATE_ tracts confiscated by ELIZABETH's bishops; free-speech books obnoxious to the ministers of the Stuarts; "Divine right" sermons and other works burnt by the common hangman by order of Parliament; and lastly, works rewarded by the High Commission in the Star Chamber with slit nose, branded face, or cropped ears. _For further particulars, including issues to date, see current List._ MR. EDWARD ARBER's PUBLICATIONS & ANNOUNCEMENTS. _CONDITIONS OF ISSUE._ 1. Prepayment is obligatory. 2. ONE Price ALONE is charged to every one. 3. That Price includes FREE DELIVERY _anywhere_ through the post. 4. These publications can ONLY be obtained by _postal_ application to Mr. ARBER. Booksellers and Shipping Agents should therefore not be troubled in respect to them. They cannot get them any cheaper; and must, in all fairness, charge Carriage, Commission etc., in addition to the One Price in which Mr. ARBER includes free delivery by post. Distribution by post is also quicker (if not more certain) than any other process of delivery that booksellers etc. can command. Applications should therefore _invariably_ be made _direct_ to the Publisher. 5. To avoid the recurrence of small payments; any sum can be sent in advance on Deposit, and will be accounted for. 6. The accurate postal address (_as if addressing a letter to one's self_) is required. 7. All packets sent outside the United Kingdom are registered. 8. Inland remittances can be made in 1/2d., 1d., or 1-1/2d. _Postage_ Stamps,
