Biography:
J Sidebotham (1802 – 1820s; active)
Also known as Sidebotham, J; Sidebethem, J; Sidebetham, J; Yedis; Sidebetham, E Address 24 Lower Sackville Street, Dublin (1802-1813) Opposition Caricature Shop Lower Sackville Street (c.1809) 18 Lower Sackville Street (1810) 74 Newgate Street, London (1815) 20 Capel Street, Dublin (1815) 96 Strand, London (1815-18) 10 St James’s Street, London (1816) 1 St James’s Street, London (1817) 72 New Bond Street, London (1817) 38 Burlington Arcade, London (1817; 1820s or later as E Sidebetham) 27 St James’s Street,
Print publisher active simultaneously in London and Dublin George assumes that the pseudonym Yedis, seen on some of his prints, is of Sidebotham himself (being Side backwards). Most of his early plates are pirated from London satires, and sometimes they give a London address; he seems to have been able to get away with this by printing them in Ireland for export to England.
