A Broadside Announcing the Publication of a Play

This broadside from 1822 came to light among bookdealers’ archival materials being catalogued in the collections of the Hispanic Society Museum & Library. It is unusual, because it is not advertising the performance of the play; it is advertising the sale of the printed play. Ada M. Coe the foremost scholar on the subject of carteleras teatrales compiled two comprehensive volumes that announced performances, but so far no other cartel has been found to advertise the printed play for sale. Unfortunately, we have not been able to locate a copy of this title to date; the BNE lists one other work by Carlos Bosch y Mata.
