Summary:

The publication of the following gleanings from eighteenth-century newspapers has been made possible through the generous cooperation of Mrs. Alfred C. Prime. The advertisements in this volume relating to the arts and crafts represent only a small part of the main collection, containing about twenty thousand cards. Mr. Prime was interested in manufactures and craftsmen of all kinds and his gleanings from early newspapers, which have been continued and made complete by Mrs. Prime, are of inestimable value to the antiquarian. -- Preface.
