Notes:
- Traditionally called the "Fourth Folio".
- Data from Wikipedia. Spellings taken from the Internet Shakespeare. The actual title printed for Hamlet is "The Tragedy of Hamlet: Rpince of Denmark", where the colon (as always here) represents a line break (but no comma), and the misspelling of "Prince" is as shown. Our policy is that we correct "obvious" misspellings, such as this.
- Comedies, Histories, and Tragedies. Published according to the true Original Copies. Unto which is added, Seven Plays, never before Printed in Folio. The Fourth edition. Edited by John Heminge and Henry Condell, except for Pericles and six spurious plays added by the publisher of the Third Folio, Philip Chetwin. Printed [by Robert Roberts and others] for H. Herringman, E. Brewster, and R. Bentley, 1685. (This paragraph, and page count, as 458 leaves, from Christie's Auction House.)
