STEELE, Richard, and John FALSTAFF. The Theatre… to which are added the Anti-Theatre. London: by and for the editor, 1791. 8vo (217 x 131mm.) Portrait vignette of Steel on the half-title, 2pp. of publisher's advertisement to rear. (Browning, occasional spotting.) Later cloth-backed boards (minor soiling). Note: two opposing theatre periodicals containing a wealth of other material relating to London life in the 18th century. Richard Steele also wrote under the pseudonym 'Sir John Edgar' and, clearly, the writer of 'Anti-Theatre', 'John Falstaff', was also a pseudonym, though not necessarily of Richard Steel.Buyer’s Premium 24.5% (including VAT @ 0%) of the hammer price.
