The button-Maker's jests. By George King, Of St. James's, Button-Maker. Containing The Cream, Marrow and Fatness of every witty Thing he either hath, or ever shall say during his Life. Calculated to make the Countryman stare, the Citizen laugh, and the Courtier grin; adapted both to the fultry Days of Autumn, or the gloomy Nights of Winter. Embellished with a curious Copper Plate, finely engraved. N.B. To prevent counterfeits, every genuine copy will be signed by the author, with his own mark, as the family are not very famous for spelling or writing. His mark.
