NOVELS AND TALES
Dickens Charles. THE NOVELS AND TALES. Philadelphia: Lea & Blanchard 1846. 3 vols. First edition. Original deep navy-blue cloth gilt. Some fraying to spine of first volume general mild edge wear discrete library stamps on front end papers and top edges no other markings to text or binding; a bright and attractive set. Included are PICKWICK OLD CURIOSITY SHOP BARNABY RUDGE OLIVER TWIST NICHOLAS NICKLEBY and MARTIN CHUZZLEWITT. We have seen only two other sets: we sold a rebound set more than a decade ago and we have seen a set in shabby condition worn and faded original purple cloth recased with new end papers. Because these volumes were the same size and thickness as the English "octavo novels" very few survive in acceptable condition. This is the first collected edition of Dickens' works published in America and it is entirely unrecorded: Wilkins thought the 1851 Peterson edition was the first collected American edition; Podeschi records only the four-volume reprint of 1851; the McGuire collection included an 1847-8 reprint. This edition even precedes by one year the first `Cheap Edition' of Dickens WORKS published in England and the Chapman & Hall collected edition "Library Edition" of the 1850s. Rare. hardcover books

We have more books available by this author!. xv 1 432 pp. 8vo. Green cloth gilt image of Dickens on front board black titles. Illustrated with photographs from The Liebler Company's Centenary Celebration production of J. Comyn Carr's Adaptation of the Novel first acted by a special cast at the New Amsterdam Theatre New York City February 26 1912. "Oliver Twist subtitled The Parish Boy's Progress is the second novel by English author Charles Dickens published by Richard Bentley in 1838. The story is about an orphan Oliver Twist who endures a miserable existence in a workhouse and then is placed with an undertaker. He escapes and travels to London where he meets the Artful Dodger leader of a gang of juvenile pickpockets. Naively unaware of their unlawful activities Oliver is led to the lair of their elderly criminal trainer Fagin. Oliver Twist is notable for Dickens' unromantic portrayal of criminals and their sordid lives.1 The book exposed the cruel treatment of many a waif-child in London which increased international concern in what is sometimes known as "The Great London Waif Crisis": the large number of orphans in London in the Dickens era. The book's subtitle The Parish Boy's Progress alludes to Bunyan's The Pilgrim's Progress and also to a pair of popular 18th-century caricature series by William Hogarth A Rake's Progress and A Harlot's Progress.2 An early example of the social novel the book calls the public's attention to various contemporary evils including child labour the recruitment of children as criminals and the presence of street children. Dickens mocks the hypocrisies of his time by surrounding the novel's serious themes with sarcasm and dark humour. The novel may have been inspired by the story of Robert Blincoe an orphan whose account of hardships as a child labourer in a cotton mill was widely read in the 1830s. It is likely that Dickens's own early youth as a child labourer contributed to the story's development.3 Oliver Twist has been the subject of numerous film and television adaptations and is the basis for a highly successful musical play and the multiple Academy Award winning 1968 motion picture made from it.

OLIVER TWIST;
1838. our finest copy evah or The Parish Boy's Progress. By "Boz." In Three Volumes. London: Richard Bentley 1838. 4 pp Vol I undated ads; 2 preliminary pp Vol III undated ads. Original purplish-brown fine-diaper cloth. First Edition first issue of this classic novel that has also been a hit as a Broadway musical. This is the "true first edition" not merely the "first edition in book form." Unlike most of Dickens's novels OLIVER TWIST was not first issued in monthly serial parts; it did appear in "Bentley's Miscellany" magazine from February 1837 through April 1839 but this three-volume edition was published in November 1838. OLIVER TWIST was finally issued in ten serial parts in 1846 -- one of the scarcest "Dickens in parts." Within a week after initial publication copies began to be issued at Dickens's insistence with his name on the title pages rather than "Boz" and with the "church" plate replacing the "fireside" plate. This copy is of the first issue -- with "Boz" on the title pages and with the "fireside" plate at the end of Vol III. This set is in the primary fine-diaper cloth some copies are in horizontally-ribbed cloth of the same color but with a different arabesque design -- precedence unknown. This copy does have the "London/Bentley" imprint at the foot of the spines where some copies are blank; it has been surmised that the blank binding is earlier if only because Bentley would have been more likely to add than to remove his name from the volumes -- though precedence is far from certain. Lastly the list of illustrations in Vol I is present in this copy: again it is uncertain whether its absence or its presence was the earlier state though it is possible that Bentley may have begun inserting it when he realized that George Cruikshank's name had otherwise been omitted from the publication. Bear in mind that the second issue with Dickens's name on the title pages was out within a week of the first; therefore all of these questions of precedence among issue points involve only a few days. This set is in FINE condition: there is essentially no external wear to the cloth the spine gilt remains bright the original yellow endpapers exhibit only the merest hint of cracking there is scarcely any foxing at all on the textual leaves or plates. in fact the ONLY notable flaw is that on two covers there is a faint partial glass-ring. Period. This is the best copy we have offered in our 35 years in business. Smith I pp 28-37; Gimbel A27; Eckel pp 59-61; Carter BV p. 107 and MBV p. 7. Housed in a morocco-backed clamshell case. <br/><br/> hardcover books

We have more books available by this author!. 404 pp. "Oliver Twist is born into a life of poverty and misfortune raised in a workhouse in the fictional town of Mudfog located 70 miles 110 km north of London.11128 He is orphaned by his father's mysterious absence and his mother Agnes' death in childbirth welcomed only in the workhouse and robbed of her gold name locket. Oliver is meagerly provided for under the terms of the Poor Law and spends the first nine years of his life living at a baby farm in the 'care' of a woman named Mrs Mann who embezzles much of the money entrusted to the baby farm by the parish. Oliver is brought up with little food and few comforts. Around the time of Oliver's ninth birthday Mr Bumble the parish beadle removes Oliver from the baby farm and puts him to work picking and weaving oakum at the main workhouse. Oliver who toils with very little food remains in the workhouse for six months. One day the desperately hungry boys decide to draw lots; the loser must ask for another portion of gruel. This task falls to Oliver himself who at the next meal comes forward trembling bowl in hand and begs the master for gruel with his famous request: "Please sir I want some more".13"--Wikipedia Nelson Doubleday hardcover books

Our Mutual Friend In the Original Monthly Parts and with the Rare Misprint in Part 10 Advertiser Page 13
London May 1864-November 1865: Chapman & Hall. First Edition. Original Wraps. In the original monthly parts 20 parts in 19. Original green printed wrappers; ALL wrappers are correct. ALL the ads called for by Hatton & Cleaver are present except for the rare ad "The Economic Life Assurance Society" following the plates in part 14. FIRST ISSUE of the wrappers without the imprint at the foot of front wrapper of part 1. In the Advertiser of part 10 Hatton & Cleaver states "In a few copies seen p. 13 was misprinted "31." The present copy has this misprint. The plates are very good to fine; the text and wrappers are clean and bright and without repair. Part 15 with text unopened. Most spines are expertly and invisibly renewed. Our Mutual Friend has more of the Advertiser ads than any of Dickens' other works having 320 pages and 89 insets and slips in the rear of the parts. Altogether a brilliant set lacking just one rare ad and having the first issue points in the wrappers and a rare misprint in the Advertiser of part 10. This fine set is the best we are likely to find and it has a pedigree - it is from the famed Thomas Hatton & Cleaver collection. Housed in a handsome green 3/4 leather solander pull-off-top slipcase with chemise. <br/><br/> Chapman & Hall paperback books
