Autograph letter signed from William Jaggard, Shakespeare Press, Stratford on Avon, to John Pierce, Albany, New York [manuscript], 1912 January 24.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/456557070

A reply to Pierce's letter calling attention to a composition error on p. 499 of Jaggard's Shakespeare bibliography, written on Shakespeare Press stationary. Jaggard apologizes for the delay in responding: "your question could not be answered off-hand, but required a journey to two different libraries...Theobald's Shakespeare 1733 1st ed. rightly possesses no plates save the portrait."

1 leaf ; 28 x 22 cm.
