Source of text:
RS:HS 16.13
Summary:

Needs the name of the print seller from whom JH's cousin bought the copy of the print of JH's portrait, so RS can learn how many copies are available. RS will then know whether to 'treat with [the printer] as an honest man or a rogue.'

From:
Sir John Herschel
To:
Richard Sheepshanks
Date:
[2 March 1840]
Source of text:
RS:HS 16.12 (C: RS:HS 25.9.5)
Summary:

JH concerned not so much that a few copies of the print of JH's portrait may have been sold, but that the plate itself may have been stolen and sold. Seems relieved to know that the plate was left with the printer, not the engraver. Asks RS to make an inquiry with the printer.
