_Ryal Book, or Book for a King_, perfect, but several leaves mended (11-1/8 in. x 8-1/8 in.), no date (1487?), folio, L365. _The Prouffitable Boke for Mannes Soule, called The Chastysing of Goddes Children_, no date, folio, quite complete; and another called _The Tretyse of the Love of Jhesu Christ by_ _Wynkyn de Worde_, 1493, folio, both in one volume, L305. _Boecius de Consolacione Philosophie_, in Latin and English, a complete copy, several leaves stained (10-3/4 in. x 7-1/2 in.), old calf, no date, folio, L156. Contemporary with Caxton were the printers Lettou and Machlinia, previously mentioned, who carried on business in the city of London, where they established a press in 1480. Machlinia had previously worked under Caxton. Their productions are scarce, but not so much so as those of Caxton. An inferior copy of their _Vieux Abrigement des Statutes_, no date, but about 1481, folio, sold by auction in August, 1887, for L8 10s., and occasionally other and better specimens may be picked up for two or three times that amount. WYNKYN DE WORDE, 1491. [Illustration:] In all probability this famous printer was one of Caxton's assistants or workmen, when the latter was living at Bruges, but without doubt he was employed in his office at Westminster until 1491, when he commenced business on his own account, having in his possession a considerable quantity of Caxton's type. Wynkyn de Worde, who was one of the founders of the Stationers' Company, died in 1534, after having printed no less than 410 books known to bibliographers, the earliest of which bearing a date is the _Liber Festivalis_, 4to, 1493. The whole of these works, especially when in good condition, are excessively scarce, and invariably bring high prices. A wormed copy of the _Descrypcion of Englonde, Wales, and Scotlonde_ brought L10 at the Gibson Craig sale in July, 1887, and the _Vitas Patrum_, 1495, folio, L71, at the Crawford sale in the same month. Voragine's _Golden Legend_, printed by de Worde in 1527, brought L81 a short time ago; his _Higden's Polychronicon_, 1495, folio, wanting title, L16 5s.; the _Nova Legenda Anglie_, 1516, folio (wormed), L28; and Dame Juliana Berner's _Fysyhing with an Angle_, 1496, folio (frontispiece inlaid), L120.
