John Wright (bookseller)
John Wright (fl. 1602-1658) was a major London publisher and bookseller and one of the two booksellers who sold ''Shakespeare's Sonnets'' in 1609. He also was a member of the syndicate that printed the Shakespeare First Folio in 1623. He published several editions of Christopher Marlowe’s ''Doctor Faustus'' beginning with the second in 1616, was an official printer for the Parliament of England, and published several early newspapers and ballads.
==Career==

Wright finished his apprenticeship in 1602 and published many notable books, setting up his business at the Kings Head in the Old Bailey. He was the chief publisher of ballads in partnership with Fr. Coles, T. Vere, and W. Gilbertson. In 1609 he and bookseller William Aspley were the vendors of ''Shakespeare's sonnets'', and seven of the 13 extant copies bear Wright's imprint.〔Booth, Stephen, ed. ''Shakespeare's sonnets'' by William Shakespeare. Yale UP, 1977, 543.〕
His publication of a book against the Parliament in 1643 caused him to be committed to the Compter, but by the next month he had become one of the official printers for the body.〔''An Ordinance from His Majesty, and Both Houses of Parliament: For Ordering of the Militia of the Kingdome of England, and Dominion of Wales. Also for setting the same in a posture of War. Feb. 10.'' London, Printed for John Wright, 1642.〕
On 11 May 1643, he started a news-sheet called ''Mercurius Civicus'' with Thomas Bates, which ran until the end of 1646. Each issue included a woodcut or two on the first page illustrate some event. Wright and Bates were also published ''The True Informer'', another news-sheet.
