The best collections are in the British Museum, Bodleian Library & Cambridge University Library. Harvard College Library has a fine collection

[Flimsy works of popular literature sold for a few pence, often by itinerant pedlars or 'chapmen'
(also called Running, Walking or Flying Stationers).
In circulation from 16th to 19thC's. The term 'Chapbook' was first coined in the early 19thC
The first cheap printed books for a popular market began to appear in England during 16thC
They often contained controversial political or religious comment, in spite of legal restrictions on
such material. The abolition of the court of Star Chamber in 1641 gave more freedom to printers,
and cheap books increased in the years that followed.
They were sold for a penny or halfpenny.
The two largest publishers were John Pitts (1765-1844) & James Catnach (1792-1841),
both of whom operated in the Seven Dials district of St Giles in the Fields, London.
Others were John Marshall, and william & Cluer Dicey.]
