Note 485:A — Chapter II · (continued 2)
Reading edition
As Batman's Bartholome, continues Mr. Douce, "is likely hereafter to form an article in a Shakspearean Library, it may be worth adding that in a private diary written at the time the original price of the volume appears to have been eight shillings."—Illustrations, vol. i. p. 9.
I have lately seen a copy of Batman, marked, in a Sale Catalogue, at three guineas and a half!
