HANCOCK (RALPH), bookseller in London, 1580-95; Over against St. Giles' Church, without Cripplegate. This stationer was apparently one of Thomas Man's { [[MAN, Thomas ( - 1625) ‹ LBT 07630 ›]] }  apprentices, but there seems to be some confusion both as to his apprenticeship {Lavin points out that this is a confusion with John Hancocke { [[HANCOCKE, John ‹ LBT 08039 ›]] } } and the date upon which he was admitted to the freedom of the Company. On November 25th, 1580, he paid 2s. 6d. "for that he was not orderly presented" [Arber, ii. 852]. And he is found taking apprentices himself on March 6th in the following year. But his first book entry in the Registers does not appear until February 24th, 1592/3 [Arber, ii. 627]. Peele's ''Old Wives' Tale'' was printed in 1595 by Danter { [[DANTER, John ( - 1599) ‹ LBT 07318 ›]] } for sale by him and John Hardy { [[HARDIE, John ( - 1612) ‹ LBT 07224 ›]] } at the address given above. This seems to be the only book now known upon which his name appears.
