John Marshall at Queen-Street from 1789. Initially as "John Marshall and Co." until Nov. 1789 when the partnership was dissolved. Thereafter as "John Marshall". Cf. Stoker, D. PBSA 107: 1 (2013) p.86-7

"17 Queen Street" ceases to appear on the imprints of Marshall's children's books some time during 1796 but reappears after his break with Hannah More in Nov. 1797. - David Stoker.
