Prints of engraved portraits from Arminian Magazine, founded by JW in 1778, and Methodist Magazine, to which it was renamed in 1798.

Prints from these first two series of the magazine are almost all from copper-plate engravings, and this partially accounts for many of the apparent duplicates. FB studied the fact that copper-plate images, due to the softness of the metal, change over the course of many printings; many of these prints bear evidence of his study, usually in the form of penciled notes that label slight variants as A, B, C, etc.
