Harry Ransom Center, Ak P689 698q.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>Part of the George A. Aitken Collection, which came to the Ransom Center in 1921, this copy of <em>Queen Catharine<\/em> is, from the outside, typical of the playbooks that went through the hands of nineteenth- and early-twentieth-century book collectors. It has been rebound in red leather and features marbled endpapers. Oddly, though, the volume\u2019s only bookplate before arriving at the University of Texas appears not at the very front but on a leaf inserted <em>after <\/em>the playbook\u2019s title-page. On the back\u2014the verso\u2014of that leaf, the plate reads, \u201cCary Coke Wife of Edward Coke, Esq. 1701.\u201d The fact that it comes after the endpapers is not in and of itself unusual: book collectors in the early eighteenth century understood, perhaps better than modern ones, the impermanence of book bindings, and often glued their plates to the blank versos of title-pages. A bookplate following a title-page, however, is odd.\u00a0 A little more than 300 of the Cokes\u2019 playbooks are now at Oxford University\u2019s Bodleian Library, and none include a plate in this position. Of the 30 total volumes in which they have been bound together, 24 include either Edward or Cary\u2019s plate. In 22 of them, it appears on the verso the first play\u2019s title-page.<sup><a href=\"#endnote-3\"><sup data-fn=\"b1df9620-aeca-4ac7-a739-669bcb8523f3\" class=\"fn\"\/>3<\/a><\/sup> So, the question becomes: why is Cary Coke\u2019s bookplate on an extra leaf in this copy of <em>Queen Catharine<\/em>? And what can this tell us about the history of this playbook before it arrived at the University of Texas?<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"695\" src=\"https:\/\/notevenpast.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Ak-P689-698q-A1r-and-A2r-1024x695.png\" alt=\"Title-page and sig.

Harry Ransom Center, Ak P689 698q<\/em>.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>One clue may lie in a single handwritten correction. On the first page of the dedication to Coke, there is a typesetting error. What should be \u201cbrightest and\u201d\u2014\u201cDid not some of the brightest and best of our Sex can boast of incourage attempts of this kind\u2026\u201d\u2014lacks a space between the two words, appearing as \u201cbrightestand.\u201d<sup><a href=\"#endnote-4\"><sup data-fn=\"b1502a2e-6129-4462-938f-f4b62bbcde7a\" class=\"fn\"\/>4<\/a><\/sup> In the Center\u2019s copy of <em>Queen Catharine<\/em>, someone has attended to this error, crossing out \u201cand\u201d and rewriting the word above in an early hand that roughly mimics the font. Given the bookplate, the emendation may have been made by Pix herself before she presented the book to Cary Coke. Or maybe it was made by Coke upon receiving the playbook from Pix. If a presentation copy, the playbook may have been kept separate from the bound playbooks, which include another copy of the <em>Queen Catharine <\/em>edition<em>. <\/em>(The volume including that copy bears Edward Coke\u2019s bookplate, not Cary\u2019s.) It isn\u2019t hard to imagine that Cary Coke would want a special, personal copy of a play dedicated to her to remain apart from the larger, household collection of plays. It also isn\u2019t difficult to imagine Pix taking a moment to correct a typesetting error in her dedication before sending or presenting the copy to the dedicatee. Of course, though, we can probably never know for sure.<\/p>\n<p>There is also the matter of Aitken himself. That a Pix play found a home in Aitken\u2019s collection at all is appropriate, given his wide-ranging interest in English books and a scholarly interest in the literature of Queen Anne\u2019s reign in particular.<sup><a href=\"#endnote-5\"><sup data-fn=\"58e2f623-4548-4ad1-b2bf-ca8198e2b6e2\" class=\"fn\"\/>5<\/a><\/sup> However, few records indicating when and from where Aitken purchased his books survive. Aitken\u2019s association with notorious book-forger and thief Thomas J. Wise (a few examples of their personal correspondence <em>do<\/em> survive in the Aitken collection) complicates matters further. Wise\u2019s determination to create fine copies of early playbooks for his own collection (in)famously drove him to steal leaves out of copies at the British Museum (now the British Library).<sup><a href=\"#endnote-6\"><sup data-fn=\"c6667db9-0190-49d1-9442-71979237f704\" class=\"fn\"\/>6<\/a><\/sup> He also went so far as to forge entire editions of nineteenth-century books that did not exist, relying on his otherwise sterling reputation as a bibliophile to pass said forgeries off as legitimate.<sup><a href=\"#endnote-7\"><sup data-fn=\"4faca453-8e4a-4fa6-b8c1-c5a1b533d356\" class=\"fn\"\/><\/a><a href=\"#endnote-8\">7<\/a><\/sup> Since a working connection is known to exist between Aitken and Wise, and given Aitken\u2019s relative lack of auction records or other bills of sale, it may be necessary to approach the Aitken collection with some degree of caution. But should Aitken and, by extension, the Ransom Center\u2019s <em>Queen Catharine<\/em> be found \u201cguilty by association\u201d with Wise?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Arguably no. Although the bookplate placement is curious, the playbook leaves themselves show no signs of having been manipulated by Wise or his binder. And Wise, fortunately, is not known to have forged provenance in this way. Aitken, too, clearly had many sources for his books apart from Wise. How the Cary Coke\u2019s copy of <em>Queen Catharine <\/em>left the rest of the playbook collection at her home, Holkham Hall, is unclear, but it appears that it did in fact end up here in Austin, Texas, offering a window\u2014even if a clouded one\u2014into the relationship between two influential literary women.<\/p>\n<p><em>Rachel Spencer is a PhD candidate in the Department of English at UT Austin.
