I am cataloguing a 1785 children's book published by John Marshall of London
in about 1785. On the title-page, beneath the imprint and the price appear
the words "N.B. The lettering of this book is withinside." Doubtless this
is a question to which any professional librarian or bookseller will know
the answer, but I don't, and I should be most grateful if someone can tell
me (off-list unless they think the answer might be of general interest) what
this phrase means.
