Clements, contemporary calf, rebacked, spine gilt with raised bands and red morocco label, upper joint cracking at top [ESTC S121368], folio, William Jaggard, 1623 Fußnoten "This elaborate and beautiful book... is a far more sophisticated production than [Shakespeare's] First Folio.

The two books shared a similar schedule... and they were finished late in 1623, just after William Jaggard had died" (University of Iowa website).
