Mr. Bunn on the Stage, at the St. James's Theatre - Scene the Blackfriars Theatre, [London], 1850.

In treating of the "genius and career of Shakspeare," Mr. Bunn illustrated his humble origin and great personal merits, by reference to the localities associated with his history - pictorial representations of which were given. These consisted of eight views: being the exterior and interior of Shakspeare's birth-place, Anne Hathaway's cottage, the "Blackfriars" and "Globe" '. From "Illustrated London News", 1850.
