TO SECOND-HAND BOOKSELLERS .
Untitled Article
As the Monthly Repository circulates among a class of readers whose taste inclines them to the more solid and enduring kinds of writing , the Retrospective Review , of which the first article appears in the present Number , is intended to occupy a permanent place in the Magazine .
Its subjects will always be confined to such works as attract the lovers of good old Bookstalls and Cheap Shops , and which deserve a more popular reputation than they have yet obtained ; and the selection of such subjects will be made with a view to interest the general reader , as well as to gratify the special amateur of Old English Literature , and of Curious Boohs in
all languages . It is needless to say , that party questions can have little to do with such matters ; though , where any reference to the politics of the present day is unavoidable , the readers of the Monthly Repository will , of course , expect nothing but what is in accordance with the Liberal opinions entertained in that Magazine . A true lover of Books , accustomed to see all sorts of
opinions on his shelves , is not the man to advocate exclusive dogmas of any kind . It is obvious that , circulating among Readers , emphatically so called , and containing regularly a Review of this sort , written ( we may add ) by devoted members of the class , the Monthly Repository must afford an excellent
medium for advertising Old Boohs . The Second-hand Booksellers , it is understood , have for some time felt the want of an advertising medium in which their interests and convenience should be more cordially consulted than is found to be the case at present . It is an object with the Proprietors of the Monthly Repository to supply
that want in the completest manner ; and one advantage in particular , may be stated at once ; namely , the great moderation of the charges for inserting Stitched Catalogues , Prospectuses , Advertisements , &c . &c . Further particulars respecting these points may be learned by applying to Mr 0 . Fox , Paternoster row ; or at the Printing Office , 16 Little Pulteney street , Golden square .
