Thomas Cotes
Thomas Cotes (died 1641) was a London printer of the Jacobean and Caroline eras, best remembered for printing the Second Folio edition of Shakespeare's plays in 1632.
==Life and work==
Thomas Cotes became a "freeman" (a full member) of the Stationers Company on 6 January 1606; he was a former apprentice of William Jaggard, who would print the First Folio with his son Isaac. Cotes ran his own printing shop from 1620 to 1641; from 1635 on, he was in partnership with his brother Richard Cotes (died 1653). Their shop was in the Barbican in Aldersgate Street. (Their sister Jane was married to another printer, Robert Ibbitson.) On 19 June 1627, Thomas Cotes acquired the business and copyrights of Isaac Jaggard, son and heir of William Jaggard, from Jaggard's widow Dorothy.〔Henry Robert Plomer, ''A Dictionary of the Booksellers and Printers Who Were at Work in England, Scotland and Ireland from 1641 to 1667,'' London, The Bibliographical Society/Blades, East & Blades, 1907; p. 53.〕
A royal decree of 1637 named Thomas Cotes one of the twenty Master Printers of the Stationers Company.〔Henry Robert Plomer, ''A Short History of English Printing, 1476–1898,'' London, Kegan Paul, 1900; pp. 178-9.〕
