Check List of Newspapersof the British Isles, 1665-1800

In the American Antiquarian Society

THE American Antiquarian Society preserves Englishnewspapers only through the year 1800. Its collection

is scattering, except for files of the London Cazette and of theLondon Chronicle. But some of its provincial newspapers,and some published in Ireland and Scotland, are scarce,possibly unique, and are worth listing. A valuable featureof the list is the recording of the names of the publishers.Only newspapers are included, and no periodicals, of whichthe Society has an extensive collection. None of the So-ciety's early English newspapers were listed in Crane andKaye's Census. Of the 112 newspapers here listed, 41 arerepresented by no copies in this country, according to Craneand Kaye. The Crane and Kaye Census of British News-papers and Periodicals, 1620-1800, contains 970 titles whichare located in American libraries, although less than one-fifth are newspapers and over four-fifths aré magazines.Published in 1927 it is still the most useful check list ofAmerican holdings. A thorough check list of English news-papers through the year 1800 would constitute a projectof much historical and bibliographical value. Although itwould require a vast amount of research, time, and travel,its usefulness would surely compensate for the expenseinvolved. C. S. B.
