"When Dickens died on June 9 1870 he had completed only enough of his manuscript to make up six installments leaving unfinished a work which had commanded the widest attention for its opening numbers and which promised to be one of his most effective and popular books. Although only three parts had been issued prior to his death publication of the work continued and on completion with Part 6 of all available material the vast army of readers was left high and dry as to 'The Mystery'" Hatton and Cleaver 373.

THE MYSTERY OF EDWIN DROOD and Some Uncollected Pieces
1870. With Illustrations. Boston: Fields Osgood & Co. 1870. Original green cloth.<br/> <br/> First American Edition second issue with added material -- of the tale left unfinished at the time of Dickens's death in June 1870. In addition to DROOD this second issue adds James T. Fields's introductory "Some Memories of Charles Dickens" plus Dickens's "George Silverman's Explanation" "Holiday Romance" "Sketches of Young Couples" "New Uncommercial Samples" plus "The Will of Charles Dickens." Since 1867 Ticknor & Fields and then Fields Osgood had been Dickens's authorized publisher in America; they had serialized DROOD in their weekly Every Saturday and then published this book in early September. Ticknor & Fields had specifically commissioned Dickens to write "Holiday Romance" so that it could appear in their children's periodical Our Young Folks in 1868. Harper also serialized DROOD in a monthly Dickens supplement to Harper's Weekly but did not get their book edition out until late September. This copy is in the original green cloth in the second binding state -- 9-1/16 inches tall with a generic design replacing the FO&Co emblem on the covers and with a JRO&Co monogram rather than FO&Co at the foot of the spine: when James T. Fields retired on New Year's Day 1871 the firm became James R. Osgood & Company. The volume is in very good condition minor external wear pp 13-16 edge-worn with tape mend at gutter also reinforced at the gutter of the frontispiece. Smith pp 412-416; Podeschi Yale A156; Carr UTexas B278; Wilkins p. 35 Smith notes that later copies were bound without the FO&Co initials on the covers but does not note any change in spine monogram; otherwise this JRO&Co binding is is not cited by any of these sources. unknown

THE MYSTERY OF EDWIN DROOD
1870. New York: Harper & Brothers 1870. 2 pp preliminary ads plus 44 pp terminal ads dated Oct 1870. Original yellow-brown pictorial wrappers.<br/> <br/> Early second American edition published in late September about three weeks after Fields Osgood's edition -- and about three months after Dickens's death in June left this tale unfinished. The front cover illustration the same as appeared on the six UK parts was the work of Charles A. Collins -- Dickens's son-in-law and Wilkie's brother; the scenes shown formed the basis for the numerous attempts after Dickens's death to complete or "solve" the mystery. Harper had been serializing DROOD in parts as a monthly Dickens supplement to their Harper's Weekly but Fields Osgood had earlier paid Dickens an advance for book publication. The Harper serialization -- as well as the fact that this Harper edition came out only in wrappers -- probably explains why Harper's edition is so scarce today: many of their readers had already read the tale serially. This copy does bear the earliest and usual date October 1870 on both the ads and rear cover and the preliminary list of titles properly ends with No. 349. This copy does NOT have the Dickens portrait leaf which Smith notes is true with some copies. Copies without that leaf may be a later state but possibly copies WITH it may be a later state; a third possibility is that some initial buyers removed that leaf for framing in honor of the author who had just died. Condition is very good with very little of the wrapper lacking but with a couple of dampstains affecting the front cover and first leaves. This Harper edition is MUCH scarcer than the Fields Osgood edition for the reasons cited above; this is the first time in 40 years that we have offered it in original wrappers. Smith pp 417-418; curiously not in Podeschi Yale; Carr UTexas B279. unknown

Missing ONLY cork insert & a "Chapman & Hall" in part 5. . Hatton/Cleaver calls for parts 3 & 5 to have an 8 page "Chapman & Hall recent acquisitions" insert. Our Part 3 has this but 5 does not. All else is present and accounted for as per Hatton & Cleaver. ALSO: H/C states but assigns no priority: "in about 10% of the copies of Part 4 there appeared the same Chapman & Hall." This dealer has the H/C book and that statement is shown on our last scan. Our Drood is one of the 90% where the Chapman & Hall is NOT found. H/C entry for all the needed Drood points is 14 pages long. Their book is titled "Bibliography of the Periodical Works of Charles Dickens." This bibliography at no extra charge will accompany our Drood. This bealer has used the H/C for years and has no furthur use for it as he is winding down his book business. It is an AS NEW VERY FINE 1994 Martino reprint which is itself limited to 350 copies. DROOD's CONDITION: Worn. Detached front wraps on 2 3 & 6; and 3 & 6's lower wrap. Wraps with varying degree of wear that of upper vol 1 & lower vol 6 the worst. Spines of 1 2 3 & 6 worn. Internally all quite nice. No aging foxing marginalia etc. . Chapman & Hall paperback
