Oliver Twist; or the Parish Boy's Progress.
London: Richard Bentley 1838 Three volumes. Illustrated with twenty-four steel-engraved plates by George Cruikshank. First edition mixed issue with many first issue points to the text early "Boz" on the title pages and the later "Church" plate in Volume III. Lacking half-titles and advertisements. Finely bound in late 19th century half black morocco marbled paper-covered boards five raised bands to spines lettered decorated and ruled in gilt and marbled endpapers. Near fine with some mild flaking to spine ends and joints some corners lightly bumped light rubbing to boards and some very light soiling and spotting internally. Overall a beautiful tight and square set of one of Dickens' most beloved works. Housed in a navy slipcase. Smith I 4. Published shortly after the enactment of the Poor Law Amendment Act of 1834 which mandated that state poor relief would only be given to workhouse residents Oliver Twist served as a vehicle for Dickens' criticism of the effects of poverty left unabated. Specifically this social novel tells the story of poor orphaned Oliver Twist who is drawn into the dark worlds of child labor petty crime and life in the London slums. The book features some of Dickens' most colorful characters including Fagin the Artful Dodger Bill Sykes and Nancy. The book has received many film adaptations over the years including David Lean's classic 1948 version starring John Davies as Twist and Alec Guinness as Fagin and the 1968 musical film Oliver! which won six Academy Awards and was itself adapted from the same-titled 1960 Tony Award-winning musical. .

DL consignment. Shelved Room C. This edition of "OLIVER TWIST" is bound in the publisher's original boards and is missing illustrations as called for after publication thus has not been altered since original issue. <br /> <br /> Charles Dickens was born February 7 1812 in Portsmouth England. Forced to leave school to work in a boot-blackening factory from ages 12-15 to help pay off his father's debts Dickens would take these early experiences alongside a love of reading writing and desire for fame and fortune into an immensely successful career as a novelist and journalist. <br /> <br /> "Oliver Twist" was the second novel Dickens wrote. Originally published as a serial from 1837 to 1839 in the magazine "Bentley's Miscellany". The novelization would come about first as a three-volume work under "Boz" a pseudonym Dickens used in his early works "Sketches by Boz" with origins in the mispronunciation of "Moses" as "Boses". This nickname can still be found in this first American edition "BOZ!" on the title page. <br /> <br /> "Oliver Twist" would break ground as the first Victorian era novel with a child protagonist its depictions of poverty and life as a child working in a factory and would become one of Dicken's most known stories. "Oliver Twist" was and remains a highly regarded work by critics and audiences alike. However it would come under fire in it's early printing for it's portrayal of the character of Fagin who's ethnicity is constantly referenced as "the Jew". Despite at first reacting defensively to early critiques of antisemitism Dickens would change the book so that past the first 38 chapters references to Fagin as "the Jew" were nearly nonexistent. 1388368.

Oliver Twist.
London: Bradbury & Evans Whitefriars 1846. Early edition of Dickens's classic second novel. Octavo bound in full calf full morocco with gilt titles and tooling to the spine in six compartments within raised gilt bands gilt ruling to the front and rear panels gilt inner dentelles marbled endpapers all edges gilt frontispiece with twenty-four illustrations on steel by George Cruikshank. In near fine condition with some toning. "Dickens turned in Oliver Twist to the novel of crime and terror. Some characters are drawn with humorous realism but for the most part humor is dimmed by gloomy memories of the authors own neglected childhood and sensational scenes are shrouded in an atmosphere genuinely eerie and sinister That Dickens shared with his contemporaries the conviction that the novel should be an instrument of social reform is evident in Oliver Twist" Baugh.

Dickens' second novel originally published as by "Boz" in serial form 1837-39; this three volume First Edition was published 6 months before the initial serialisation was complete. The first issue points of the book are succinctly summarised by Smith "Dickens not only objected to the Fireside plate but also disliked having "Boz" on the title-page. He voiced these objections prior to publication and the plate and title-page were changed between November 9 and 16'. The classic tale of the runaway orphan raised in a workhouse who joins Fagin's gang of pickpockets in London was informed by the Author's own experiences of workhouse life as a child and highlights the problems of child labour domestic violence and the poverty of street children.

Dickens, Charles
Oliver Twist.
London: Bradbury & Evans Whitefriars 1846. First single volume edition of “the most perfect of all the Dickens novels†Virginia Woolf. Octavo bound in full polished calf by Sangorski and Sutcliffe with gilt titles and tooling to the spine in six compartments within raised gilt bands gilt turn-ins and inner dentelles marbled endpapers top edge gilt. With black and white illustrations done by George Cruikshank. In near fine condition bookplate to the front pastedown. Housed in a custom marbled slipcase. A social novel that critiques the harsh realities of poverty and injustice in Victorian England through the story of its orphaned protagonist. Born in a workhouse and subjected to cruelty and exploitation Oliver endures a series of hardships including mistreatment by the parish authorities forced involvement with a gang of criminals led by Fagin and the constant threat of corruption. The novel exposes the failures of the Poor Law and the brutal conditions faced by the underprivileged particularly children. Through a mix of realism satire and sentimentality Dickens highlights themes of social inequality crime and moral resilience. Ultimately Oliver’s journey from suffering to eventual security serves as both a compelling narrative and a powerful critique of the systemic neglect of society’s most vulnerable members.

DICKENS, CHARLES FIRST OR EARLY AMERICAN PRINTINGS OF THREE WORKS
OLIVER TWIST THE LIFE AND ADVENTURES OF NICHOLAS NICKLEBY and AMERICAN NOTES FOR GENERAL CIRCULATION
Philadelphia: Lea & Blanchard; New York: Harper & Brothers 1839-42. Various Editions as described below. 16 pp. ads 2 leaves 13-212 pp. 8 leaves inserted ads; viii 13-403 1 pp.; 92 pp. 2 leaves ads. Three separately published works. <br/> Oliver Twist in publisher's purple-brown cloth smooth spine with gilt title and depiction of Oliver; "Nicholas Nickleby" in original tan paper boards backed with dark brown buckram smooth spine with paper label; "American Notes" in original brown paper wrappers printed in black in modern green buckram chemise and slipcase red morocco label. Oliver Twist with 24 plates by Cruikshank; "Nicholas Nickleby" with two plates by Phiz Hablot Knight Browne. Oliver Twist with the ex libris of W. Miller/ Dickensiana to the front pastedown additionally with the pencilled ownership inscription "J. B. Finlay Esq. Woodlea Saratoga Springs New York 1864" and an additional ink ownership inscription "Beekman Finlay" to the front flyleaf. "Nicholas Nickleby" with illegible early ink inscription to the front flyleaf. "American Notes" with the early ink ownership inscription of Marshall Whittemore and the pencilled inscription of M. A. Lebbette to the title. Oliver Twist: Wilkins p. 15; Podeschi A31. "Nicholas Nickelby": Podeschi A43; Wilkins p. 17. "American Notes": Podeschi A67; Wilkins p. 24. Bindings rather sunned; "Notes" with the wrappers a bit chipped and soiled "Notes" also rather foxed internally because of poor paper quality though the other two works generally quite clean scattered light stains plates with overall mild toning other trivial defects but all still perfectly acceptable in their solid unrestored original bindings.<br/> <br/> This is a pleasing group of three early American Dickens printings all in their original publisher's bindings and well preserved when considering the poor state of bookmaking in the United States at the time. Of "Oliver" one of the author's most famous works Day says "the novel's lasting achievement is the symbolic power of the dark underwolrd of the poor. The pitiful figure of Oliver holding out his little bowl and asking for more is an ineradicable symbol of all the needy children in the world pleading for sustenance. In such universalizing lies the magic of Dickens." The work first appeared in America in two volumes published by Lea & Blanchard previously Carey Lea and Blanchard in 1838-39. Our single volume edition followed shortly in 1839 initially in a state containing only two frontispiece etchings and shortly after with the full 24 as here. This copy which retains the original ads before and after the text is from the library of an important Dickens scholar: William Miller was a founding member of the Dickens Fellowship and helped create their journal "Dickensiana." He published a Dickens bibliography "The Dickens Student and Collector" in 1946 and had a large collection of Dickens' works and related ephemera particularly focusing on musical adaptations of Dickens' works. Our copy also belonged to John Beekman Finlay 1810-69 an early president of the First National Bank of Saratoga Springs and a justice of the peace. "Nicholas Nickleby" written during the same period as "Oliver" follows the eponymous character's attempts to get by and to protect his virtuous sister Kate from poverty suitors with evil motives and the pair's cartoonishly cruel uncle Ralph. Day writes that while the plot is "rather hopeless" in this novel "Dickens creates some of the most extraordinary scenes in English literature" with deliciously comic and highly theatrical juxtapositions of character and scene. Originally released in 20 parts by Lea & Blanchard from 1838-39 the present version is the first complete edition released in the United States. Apparently two concurrent states were released one with all 39 of the Phiz illustrations and the second as in our copy with two frontispiece illustrations only. The third work here is probably the most unfavorably received of all of Dickens' books particularly in the States. "Notes" reflects the hearty dislike the author developed for America during his tour there in the winter and spring of 1842. He was disgusted with the Americans' rough-hewn lack of sophistication and especially with the toleration of slavery and the book clearly shows his antipathy. Ours was one of three editions released in November of 1842; there is some disagreement about which of these is truly the first American edition but they all were issued within a few days of each other.

Dickens, Charles
Oliver Twist. By Charles Dickens in 3 vols.
London: Richard Bentley 1838. First edition. Near Fine. Second issue with the title-page authorship credit to Charles Dickens instead of "Boz" and with the "Church" version of the final plate. First state of volume III with "pilaster" instead of "pier" or "pedestal" on page 164. Almost all the internal flaws according to Smith present. Three octavo volumes 7 15/16 x 4 7/8 inches; 202 x 124 mm. Volumes I and III in twelves volume II in eights. iv 12-331 1 blank 4 advertisements; iv 12-307 1 blank; iv 12-315 1 blank pp. No half-title called for in Volume III. Twenty-four engraved plates by George Cruikshank. Small piece 3/4 x 3/8 inch torn away from upper corner of second plate in volume II repaired tear to top margin of following pages 61/62; E7. Original Smith primary binding; Carter binding variant B reddish brown fine-diaper cloth front and back covers stamped in blind with an arabesque design spines ruled in blind and lettered in gilt original pale yellow coated endpapers. Some light foxing to plates as usual some light occasional marginal soiling. Spine ends and inner hinges of volume three expertly and almost invisibly repaired spines very slightly faded but gilt still bright. Armorial bookplate of Adrian Hoffman Joline on front paste-downs bookplate for volume two removed. Housed in a quarter brown morocco clamshell case. An excellent and very attractive set Near Fine.<br /> <br /> For this novel Dickens's first in the standard three-volume form Bentley divided the printing task between two firms: Volume I was printed in a twelvemo format by Samuel Bentley; Volume II in octavo format by Whiting; and Volume III preliminaries and signatures A-F and probably G by Whiting with the remaining text by Samuel Bentley again in twelvemo format. The three-decker publication date was 9 November 1839 and within a week at Dickens's insistence the title-pages were changed to include his name and the "Church" version of the final plate was substituted for the "Fireside" version.<br /> <br /> Oliver Twist Dickens' second novel is a dark and biting work but one that is balanced with Oliver's indefatigable innocence and charm. Often cited as the first Victorian novel to feature a child protagonist it was developed as a social commentary and a call for improving the conditions of London's destitute and orphan children. In recent scholarship critics have noted that Dickens also sought to find balance as many of his contemporaries did between Darwin's theories about human nature and those from the Christian tradition; as the characters make their way through a seemingly uncaring world they are ultimately drawn back to reward or retribution based on their individual level of goodness. The story was immensely successful both as a novel filled with memorable characters and also as a work prompting much needed reform. Today it remains high within the pantheon of Victorian literature and is a work that has been successfully adapted to both the stage and screen.<br /> <br /> Smith I 4. Near Fine.

Very good set with light toning to spines and board margins some fading to spine gilt on Vol. III discrete reinforcement to spine ends some ink staining to spine of Vol. II and some tiny scattered ink dots to boards of all three volumes bumped and worn corners contemporary bookseller label "Dimmock Perfumer Printseller etc. Cambridge." and contemporary ownership signature "C. Hines" to front pastedowns of all three volumes light spotting soiling and occasional creasing to pages and some spotting to plates. Overall an excellent copy of arguably Dickens' most popular novel in its very desirable publisher's cloth. With contemporary bookseller description laid in Inman's Bookshop. Housed in a custom brown slipcase. Smith I 4. Published shortly after the enactment of the Poor Law Amendment Act of 1834 which mandated that state poor relief would only be given to workhouse residents Oliver Twist served as a vehicle for Dickens' criticism of the effects of poverty left unabated. Specifically this novel tells the story of poor orphaned Oliver Twist who is drawn into the dark underbelly of London rife with child labor and petty crime. The book features some of Dickens' most colorful characters including Fagin the Artful Dodger Bill Sykes and Nancy. The book has received many film adaptations over the years including David Lean's classic 1948 version starring John Davies as Twist and Alec Guinness as Fagin and the 1968 musical film Oliver! which won six Academy Awards and was itself adapted from the same-titled 1960 Tony Award-winning musical. First Edition. Hard Cover. Very Good. Illus. by Cruikshank George. London: Richard Bentley hardcover

With the original spine cloth bound in at rear of each volume. In near fine condition. An exceptional set. "Dickens turned in Oliver Twist to the novel of crime and terror Some characters are drawn with humorous realism but for the most part humor is dimmed by gloomy memories of the authors own neglected childhood and sensational scenes are shrouded in an atmosphere genuinely eerie and sinister That Dickens shared with his contemporaries the conviction that the novel should be an instrument of social reform is evident in Oliver Twist" Baugh.

The first edition of Oliver Twist in original cloth is a cornerstone in any Dickens collection. Publication of the serial in Bentley's Miscellany began in 1837 and "when Bentley decided to publish Oliver Twist in book form before its completion in his periodical Cruikshank was forced to complete the last few plates in haste. Dickens did not review them until the eve of publication and objected to the "Fireside" plate.and also disliked having "Boz" on the titlepage. He voiced these objections prior to the publication and the plate and the titlepage were changed between November 9 and 16" Smith 34. Smith I 4. Eckel pp. 59-62.<br /> <br /> Provenance: Each volume with the bookplates of the Albert Henry Wiggen 1868-1951 noted book collector and "the most colorful and attractive figure in the commercial banking world" the only member of the Federal Reserve Bank to have a law written specifically against his actions the "Wiggin Provision".
