DICKENS, CHARLES:
A Christmas Carol. In Prose. Being A Ghost Story of Christmas.
London Chapman & Hall 1843 1st.ed. 1st.issue. Small 8vo. 16.5 cm x 10.5 cm. BEAUTIFULLY BOUND by Sangorski & Sutcliffe. Bound in beautiful full RED morocco with with gilt titles and tooling to the spine in six compartments within raised gilt bands gilt ruling to the front and rear panels To the upper board the title and a small gilt motif in gilt. Gilt turn-ins and inner dentelles marbled endpapers all edges gilt. Bound in to the rear is the original cloth upper cover. Externally in good order with crisp stamping and the gilt bright. The binding strong and handsome with hinges firm and gutters intact. Some very light rubbing on hinges. Ends of spines a little darkened looks to have been slightly touched up at some point. Internally a few light spots to a handful of pages and the illustrations as good as we have seen. It remains largely bright throughout. Overall still a very good copy of an extremely scarce and popular book. 167p.p plus the publisher’s double-sided advertisement leaf. Four hand coloured plates and three black and white line steel engravings by Leech. Attractive checkered red and black endpapers. VERY SCARCE FIRST EDITION. For the first time and also the last time Dickens decided to print not only the title-page but also the etchings in colour. "A Christmas Carol" is one of the "greatest Christmas books ever written". It was issued just before Christmas 1843 in an edition of 6000 copies. Up to Jan.3.1844 two of the three thousand copies of the second and third editions were sold. Of the first edition there are 3 different issues: Red & blue title-page dated 1843 / red & green title-page dated 1844/ and a few copies are said to exist with the red & blue title-page and the later date. The real first edition 1st.issue is the red and blue title-page printing of "Stave I" instead of Stave One. Written by Dickens during a period when the British were exploring and re-evaluating past Christmas traditions including carols and newer customs such as Christmas cards and Christmas trees. He was influenced by the experiences of his own youth and by the Christmas stories of other authors including Washington Irving. The novella captured the mid-Victorian revival of the Christmas holiday. Dickens acknowledged the influence of the modern Western observance of Christmas and in turn his novella would go on to later influence several aspects of Christmas traditions including family gatherings seasonal food and drink dancing games and a festive generosity of spirit.

Regarded as Dicken's most widely read novel and considered to be "the greatest Christmas book ever written in any language" Eckel p. 116 selling more than 6000 copies in the few days leading up to Christmas. The work was extravagantly costly as Dickens for the first time and incidentally his last used color in the title-page and etchings as he wanted to make the book a beautiful gift and to be a celebration of the Christmas spirit. After the initial success Dickens continued the series throughout the 1840's maintaining "the Carol" philosophy to "strike a sledgehammer blow" for the poor uneducated and repressed.

Linton internally clean and bright mild offsetting to color plates. Bound in the original straight grained rose colored cloth gilt tile and wreath to spine and front cover front cover has a perfect 'D' in 'Dickens' yellow pastedowns and endpapers all edges gilt front hinge expertly repaired head of spine renewed general handling uneven stain to rear cover overall still a GOOD copy. Regarded as Dicken's most widely read novel and considered to be "the greatest Christmas book ever written in any language" Eckel p. 116 selling more than 6000 copies in the few days leading up to Christmas. The work was extravagantly costly as Dickens for the first time and incidentally his last used color in the title-page and etchings as he wanted to make the book a beautiful gift and to be a celebration of the Christmas spirit. After the initial success Dickens continued the series throughout the 1840's maintaining "the Carol" philosophy to "strike a sledgehammer blow" for the poor uneducated and repressed.

DICKENS, CHARLES
A Christmas Carol and the other Christmas Books
<p><strong>FIRST EDITIONS of all five Dickens Christmas books including the first issue of <em>A Christmas Carol</em>.</strong></p><p>Dickens wrote <em>A Christmas Carol</em> in little more than six weeks in October and November 1843. Wanting to make the book memorable for its appearance as well as its story Dickens arranged for Chapman and Hall to publish the book on commission so that he could exercise close control over production. Dickens called for a deluxe production with a gilt-stamped binding gilt edges a title-page printed in red and blue and four hand-colored etchings by John Leech. But at the same time Dickens wanted the book to reach a wide audience and set the price at only five shillings. The book was extremely well received and sold quickly but Dickens found that on the first 6000 copies he had cleared only £230 not the £1000 he had hoped for.</p><p><strong><em>A Christmas Carol</em> is the first issue</strong> with uncorrected text "Stave I" as the first chapter heading the red and blue title page dated 1843 the half title printed in blue and light green endpapers. <strong>The binding is Todd's first impression first issue</strong> with the smallest interval between blind-stamped border and gilt wreath measuring 14-15 mm and with the "D" in "Dickens" unbroken.</p><p>Dickens followed <em>A Christmas Carol</em> with four more Christmas books echoing the first book's themes of charity love and redemption. This handsome set also features: first edition of <em>The Chimes</em> with the first state of the engraved title page publisher's imprint is engraved within the title vignette; first edition of <em>The Cricket on the Hearth</em> with second state of advertising leaf at rear headed "New Edition of Oliver Twist"; first edition of <em>The Battle of Life</em> with vignette title page in the second state of four; and first edition of <em>The Haunted Man</em> <em>and</em> <em>The</em> <em>Ghost's Bargain</em>.</p><p><strong>A lovely entirely unrestored set of these beloved classics.</strong></p><p>Five volumes. Original rose and red cloth gilt. Foot of spine of <em>A Christmas Carol </em>a little chipped else a near fine set. Red morocco case.</p> Chapman and Hall [and Bradbury and Evans] hardcover
