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.

  • Prynne, William. The title of kings proved to be jvre divino. And also that our Royall Soveraign, King Charles the II is the right and lawful heir to the crown of England, and that the life of his father, Charles the first, was taken away unjustly, contrary to the common law, statute law and all other lawes of England. Wherein is laid down several proofs both of Scripture and law, clearly and plainly discovering, that there can be no full and free Parliament without a king and House of Lords. By W.P., Esq: [sic]. London: printed for Nehemiah Price, and are to be sold at the Royall Exchange in Cornhill, 1660. ESTC No. R5212. Grub Street ID 125678.
