Yellow

Textblock edges stained a solid block of colour can be a useful indicator of a binding’s date of origin. Yellows, blues, reds, they enjoyed popularity during second half of the 16th century and early 17th century. By the middle of the 17th century, the sprinkled edge supplanted the solid block of colour, and later still the marbled edge enjoyed its moment in the sun.
York

The inhertently delicate and ephemeral nature of the pamphlet as a publication type – pages simply bound without covers in numbers for distribution to an increasingly avid reading public – may explain the rarity of this 8 p. Dublin printing, issued during the Stuart Restoration and the reign of Charles II.
