GAMAGE (NICHOLAS), bookseller in London, (1) On London Bridge neere the Gate, 1646; (2) Three Bibles on London Bridge, next the Gate, 1648. From a deed of assignment dated January 10th, 1645, it appears that Nicholas Gamage was the son of Thomas Gamage, of Walden, in Essex. He had a brother John and a sister Mary. The earliest book found with his name is The World's Prospect … by John Emersone, 1646. [E. 1183 (2).] He also published Thomas Decker's English Villanies [Ninth Edition], 1648. This is probably the same house, afterwards occupied by C. Tyus and T. Passinger, q.v.
