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 James Crumpe

  • Younge, Richard. Englands unthankfulness striving with Gods goodness, for the victory: as Abaslom [sic] strove with David, whether the father should be more kinde to the son; or the son more unkinde to the father. Or, enough (being wel weighed) to melt an heart of adamant. By R. Younge, florilegus. In reference to Leviticus 19.17 and Isaiah 58.1. In reading whereof, reflect upon your selves; hearken to conscience; and what concerns you, apply it to others, as David did Nathans parable, 2 Sam. 12.1, to 8. And Ahab the prophets, 1 King.20. 39, to 43. Want of application makes all means ineffectual; and therefore are we Christians in name only, because we think out selves Christians indeed, and already good enough. [London: printed by J Bell, for James Crumpe a booke-binder: and are to be sold at his House, in Little Bartholomewes Wel-yard, and probably at most Stationers shops, [1643?]]. ESTC No. R218135. Grub Street ID 92844.
  • An abstract of some late characters. Or, How the principall means appointed for our reformation is become the maine fuell of our wickednes. Laid downe in sundry characters of L. Bishops. Dumb dogs. Non-residenciaries. Men-pleasers. Unpreaching ministers, that edify to damnation, by their scandalous living. False wresting mis-applying the Scripture. So turning the truth of God into a lye, that they may discourage the godly; incourage the wicked. In which the blind world may see, to their shame, how Satan guls them with a multitude of misprisions, and false surmises against the godly; that so he may barricado their hearts against all good. Necessary to be knowne in these times of discovery. London: printed for James Crumpe, and are to be sold at his house in Little Bartholomews, in Well-yard, 1643. ESTC No. R7704. Grub Street ID 127938.
  • Younge, Richard. Englands unthankfulness striving with Gods goodness, for the victory: as Abaslom [sic] strove with David, whether the father should be more kinde to the son; or the son more unkinde to the father.

  • Younge, Richard. A hopefull way to cure that horrid sinne of swearing: or An help to save swearers, if willing to be saved: being an offer or message from him, whom they so daringly and audaciously provoke. Also a curb against cursing. By R. Younge. [London: printed for James Crump in Little Bartholmews Well Yard, where any may have them gratis, during his life. Also at the same place, such as would may know or have the severall pieces published by this authour; which are in number thirty. Though I rather commend to my reader that excellent piece of practicall divinity, called Heaven and hell epitomized, and The true Christian characterized. By Mr Swinnock M.A., 1659]. ESTC No. R218084. Grub Street ID 92798.
  • Younge, Richard. A precious mithridate for the soule made up of those two poysons, covetousness and prodigality: the one drawn from the fathers ill qualities: the other from the sons: for the curing of both extremes, and advancing frugality, the mean. Being foure chapters taken out of R. Junius his Christian library, and are to be sold by J. Crump stationer in Little Bartolmes Well-yard, and H. Crips in Popeshead-ally.
