Caleb Quotem the Parish Factotum Near Fine. Heath was a British artist who once described himself as a portrait & military painter. He was best known for his published engravings which included caricatures, political cartoons, and commentary on contemporary life. His early works often dealt with military scenes, including colour plates for The Martial Achievements, The Wars of Wellington, etc.[4], but from about 1820 on he focused on satire. Between 1827 and 1829, many of his works were published under the pseudonym Paul Pry (the name of an overly inquisitive stage character in a popular 1825 stage comedy by John Poole; also used the pseudonym Argus. He was described by Dr John Brown, biographer of John Leech as poor Heath, the ex-Captain of Dragoons, facile and profuse, unscrupulous and clever. See WIKI.

Cloth. Condición: Good. Ridiculously overpriced but, but. Described as the first queer guide to London. Focusing on public conveniences but very wittily written and fashioned by the author to give no indication of its real purpose. It certainly fooled the publisher who, when told of its true merit, was said to have pulped the remaining stock. A good copy. 71 pages with map endpapers proving location details. Images available on request.

Hardcover. Condición: Near Fine. No Jacket. 1st Edition. The first Gay guide to London, with the earliest printed map of the city's "cottages," i.e. public houses. It takes the form of a dialogue, a fairly ridiculous conversation between two gentlemen, ostensibly a guide to public loos throughout the town, as places where men might meet . "Though not out of doors." A hilarious innuendo ensues, and one can only imagine that the sedate publisher's (Routledge) were at the start totally innocent of the fact, it being strictly against the law and thoroughly subversive.Philip Gough's map shows the major tourist draws, but also slips in fifty "Cottage's," un-named but fairly obvious.There is a tiny amount of foxing to the maps, and at the bottom of the front map there is a short 1/2" split at the base of the centre line. There are very few even in Public Collections. Was this possibly because the title was withdrawn early by the publishers? 5" x 7 1/2".
