Improbable London Trades and Public Notices 1735
A fragmented 18th century page advertises products from Adlambs Coffee House and Holbourn London, touting air forts and trusses, while listing titles like A compleat History of the late Rebellion and Generous Rivals, notes on horse racing near Oswestry, catechism confirmations, a surprising meteor account, and real estate offers. It cites printers Hinchliffe, Cox, Wilkins, and others, with prices in shillings and pence.
