DICKENS Charles.
Master Humphrey's Clock.
London: Chapman and Hall 1840-41. Original cloth 3 volumes large octavo. Original brown cloth Smith's binding variant spines lettered and decorated in gilt covers blocked in gilt and blind marbled endpapers. Housed in brown cloth slipcase. Printed frontispieces and 194 woodcut illustrations of which 154 are by Browne 19 by Cattermole and 1 by Daniel Maclise. Spines sunned and lightly bumped at ends a little rubbed contents clean. An excellent copy. First edition in book form of what Gordon Ray describes as "the pinnacle of Dickensian Gothic". He goes on to note that Phiz H. K. Browne "is in excellent form" and that George Cattermole's "wonderful clutter of antiquarian or architectural detail is well suited to Dickens's chosen subjects". Master Humphrey was a publishing experiment on Dickens's part unique in his canon of issuing two novels together: The Old Curiosity Shop and Barnaby Rudge. Eckel p. 67 ff; Ray The Illustrator and the Book in England from 1790 to 1914 60; Smith I 6. London: Chapman and Hall, hardcover
