Note: The following printer, bookseller, or publisher lists are works in progress. They are generated from title page imprints and may reproduce false and misleading attributions or contain errors.

What does "printed by" mean? How to read the roles ascribed to people in the imprints.

In terms of the book trades, the lists below are sorted into up to four groups where: the person is designated in the imprint as having a single role:

  1. "printed by x"; or
  2. "sold by x"; or
  3. "printed for x" or "published by x";

or as having the seller and printer roles in combination, or an absence of the printer's name following "London: printed:" or "London: printed,":

  1. "printed and sold by x"; or "printed for and sold by x"; or "printed by and for x"; or "printed: and sold by x"; or "printed, and sold by x";  and so on.

On this last point, trade publishers may seem to have "printed" or "published" the work, though they did not own the copyright. The lists below reflect only the information on the imprint, except where ESTC provides extra information.

Printed for Joseph Crawford

  • Hall, Thomas. An apologie for the ministry, and its maintenance: wherein is set forth the necessity, dignity and efficacy of a gospel-ministry; against the Socinians, Swenckfieldians, Weigelians, Anabaptists, Enthusiasts, Familists, Seekers, Quakers, Levellers, Libertines and the rest of that rout. Here you have many texts of Scripture explained, all the cavils of the adversaries (of any weight) refelled; te equity of tythes by many arguments evinced, and the iniquity of such as seek sacrilegiously to remove them is demonstrated, and the most material cavils against them are succinctly, yet fully answered. By Tho. Hall, B.D. and Pastor of Kingsnorton. London: printed by A[lice]. W[arren]. for Joseph Crawford at the Castle and Lyon in St. Paul's Church-yard, 1660. ESTC No. R28055. Grub Street ID 111162.
