A Month's Tour, &c. — page 3: Penny Dreadfuls, 1781

What you’re looking at

This is a title page from a book published in London in 1780 by printer G. Kearsley. The work is "A Month's Tour in North Wales, Dublin, and its Environs," presenting observations on manners and police (civic order) during that year. The page includes a Latin epigraph and publication details indicating it was printed at Fleet Street. This appears to be a travel narrative or guidebook rather than penny dreadful fiction—a genre focused on describing regions and social customs of the period.
