Seymour: "The stamp is unquestionably Plate 4...the cover is clearly dated May 23...The imprimatur sheet was sent to Somerset House on May 19. The statement by Wright & Creeke that it was put to press on May 28 is evidently incorrect. It will be duly noted..."; 1998 Brandon certificate. (Image) Est. £5,000-6,000
