Thomas Pavier

Pavier was able to set himself up in business that year; his shop was located at the sign of the Cat and Parrots, "over against Pope's Head Alley" in Cornhill.

[3] Along with William Barley, his brother Roger and printer Simon Stafford he was also accused of illegally printing a Latin grammar manual.

[3] In June 1598 Pavier backed Stafford in an attempt to prosecute Cuthbert Burby for riot who, along with others, had been acting for the Stationers' Company.

[3] Over the course of his quarter-century career, Pavier grew rich by publishing popular works of Puritan literature in multiple editions.

[4] At the start of his career, however, he worked at the lower end of the prestige scale in printed matter in his era: he primarily published ballads, chapbooks, pamphlets, and playbooks.

This volume and four others – Henry V, Sir John Oldcastle, A Yorkshire Tragedy, and Pericles, Prince of Tyre – were issued with the initials "T. P." on their title pages.

This featured the Hamlet story as recorded in Shakespeare's sources, the Historia Danica of Saxo Grammaticus and the Histoires Tragiques of François de Belleforest.

The Whole Contention Between the Two Famous Houses of York and Lancaster (1619), published by Pavier with William Jaggard as part of the False Folio of 1619.
