This Element provides an account of the ownership from 1833 to the present of the copy of Shakespeare's Second Folio (1632) held at the State Library of New South Wales in Sydney, Australia (SAFE 1/63). Tasmanian artist and author Louisa Anne Meredith was given the Folio in 1833 in Birmingham and brought it to Tasmania when she emigrated in 1839.
