James Stratford (fl. 1780s – 1810s) was a British printer, bookseller, and publisher in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries who specialised in producing part-works which were sold in instalments for later binding. He originally worked with William Stratford but later traded on his own. He was made bankrupt in 1813 and kept in Fleet Prison.
