Notes (object):
After the plate had become quite worn, it was reworked crudely by Rowlandson. Art Young in "Thomas Rowlandson" shows as frontispiece a colored version of the reworked plate. The title "The Posting Inn" appears below. The colored impression incudes some reworking, particularly in the background, not in the BPL impression. Perhaps this was a proof made during reworking.
