55 Two volumes of antient and modern cards, elegantly bound in Russia. In the first leaf is the following note: [new line] The antient cards in this volume, with others, (duplicates,) and the drawings in the second volume, were purchased by me out of the collection of Dr. Stukeley. The drawings were produced by the doctor, the 9th of November, 1720, to the Society of Antiquaries, observing that the cards had been given him by Thomas Rawlinson, Esq. being two pieces of the cover of an old book, supposed to be Claudian, printed before 1500; and that there was a leaf or two of an old edition of Erasinus's Adages pasted between the layers of the cards, which, being laid stratum super stratum, composed two pasteboards, and made the cover of the books. The doctor took the pains to separate the cards, out of which I have chosen a complete pack, and, the better to preserve so singular a curiosity, have had it bound, together with the above-mentioned drawings and some modern French cards. [new line] It is observable, in these antient cards, that there are no aces nor queens, but, instead of the latter, there are knights. [new line] On the antiquity of playing-cards, see [new line] "Recherches historiques sur les Cartes à jouer," by Bullet, who thinks they were not invented before the XIV. century; see also the "Idée générale d'une Collection complette d'Estampes."

Ended the second Day of Juyll, the xxij. Yere of the Regne of Kynge Edward the fourth, and of the Incarnacion of oure Lord a Thousand four Honderd four Score and tweyne. / The above title I have taken from different parts of the book. Trevisa's account of the time when he finished the translation, as printed at the end of the seventh book, is an error of Caxton's; it should be 1387, the 10th year of King Richard II. On the last leaf of the index is written, in an old hand, "Presens liber~ptinet "ad Will~m Purde, emp~t a Will~mo Caxton, "Reg~ Imp~ssor, vicessimo Novembris, anno regni Rg~ "Edwardi quarti vicessimo secundo." This is the only notice that I have met with of Caxton's being called king's printer.
