Deel f. 14 - Agreement between (A) Samuel Shuckford and (B) Jacob Tonson & Co., 22 Dec. 1752; endorsed with a receipt from (A) to (B), 1 Nov. 1753

It is agreed that an impression of 1500 copies of Shuckford’s ‘Treatise on the Fall of Man’ be forthwith printed, with the same sort of letter (i.e. type) and paper as his ‘Connection of Sacred and Prophane History’, and that B shall pay A £50 as a consideration provided there is sufficient quantity of copy to make at least twenty-six sheets, ‘which will be a five Shilling volume when bound to Gentlemen’, or £40 if there is only enough copy for a 4s. volume. All future editions are reserved to A.
