SMITH (RICHARD), bookseller in London, 1567-95; At the corner shop at the North-West Door of St. Paul's Church. Richard Smith is mentioned in a list of stationers and printers hindered by privilege, as one of those who lived by bookselling but was not a stationer [Arber, i. 111].

His first entry in the Registers was made during the year ending July 22nd, 1567 [Arber, i. 337]. In 1592 he gave John Charlewood { CHARLEWOOD, John ( - 1593) ‹ LBT 07132 › } certain sermons to print for him. These were published anonymously but were traced to Lancelot Andrewes, afterwards Bishop of Winchester. Some trouble arose over them, and there are several entries in the accounts of the Company for the year ending July 15th, 1593, in connection with them [Arber, i. 561]. Richard Smith was the publisher of George Gascoigne's Hundreth sundrie Flowres, and the same writer's Posies and Steele Glas. He used as a device Time bringing Truth to light [Herbert, p. 1324].
