S." who printed the second quarto of Shakespeare's "Love's Labor's Lost" (1631) and the undated fourth quarto of "Hamlet" (c. 1630), both for Smethwick.In 1617 Stansby printed the tenth edition of Shakespeare's "Venus and Adonis" for William Barret.As a publisher, Stansby's most significant work was certainly the 1616 Jonson folio, which represented the first instance of a collected edition of the stage plays of a contemporary dramatist.
