  Price 1£ 1 s 0d

  Date from British union-catalogue of early music printed before the year 1801 and Catalogue of printed music in the British Library to 1980.

  Rockefeller Library copy from the library of Alfred Moffat, Scottish music editor and collector, dated 1908 and note that it was bound in June 1910--free front endpaper.

  Alfred Moffat's notes on the front pastedown: "1751. The license attached to this work is the same as that used by Cox for Giardini Op. 1, 2, & 3. It will be noted that this Op. VI, XII Sonatas for the Violin included in the license so that they must have been written before 1751 although probably not issued until three or four years later. It would be interesting to know in which part of Pall Mall the Royal Jelly House was situated.

  "First edition with author's imprint only.

  "The Paris edition, Six Sonatas op. VIII Chez Bayard,is simply the last 6 sonatas of the present work. The plates used are the same as those from p. 37 to finish. Evidently Giardini sold those to the Paris publisher at a later dte. The 'headings' from Sonata VII were deleted and reorganized & the deletions & reengravig of the pagination are quite distinct.

  "The British Museum copy of this so-called 'op 8' is incomplete & minus the title-page. The Catalogue ventures at London, Op. 8 - not knowing that the edition is from Paris."
