I have just added to my collection "A Selection of Mr Reads Weekly Journal or British Gazatteer from 1721 to 1725". Previously owned by Edwin Dearn, magician, magic collector, and a friend of Harry Houdini. Purchased from Birmingham book dealer James Wilson in 1924 it was rebound in Shanghai in 1925. It includes the deaths (among many others) of the 1st Duke of Marlborough, Sir Christopher Wren, a few pyrates, Blueskin, and Jack Sheppard. Also superb full page illustrations representing the South Sea Bubble. I will scan and digitalise them in the near future for to Last Chance To Read my other website - with almost 3000+ digitalised newspapers searchable by Google
