John Bland was a London engraver, printer, music seller and publisher, probably a relation of Anne Bland. He seems to have been active from about 1776. When Joseph Haydn visited London, Bland hosted him at his house over the music shop for a while. He died or ceased trading in late 1794.
The business premises passed into the hands of "Lewis, Houston and Hyde", then F. Linley, and then (before 1800) William Hodsoll. Z.T. Purday was the owner in 1840.
