<p><b>DICKENS Charles. </b><i>Court of Common Sense. </i>4to broadside 10 x 7 1/2" mounted on a sheet from an album. London: Tuck & Co. Printers Little St. Thomas Apostle 1837. <br /></p>A humorous reference to Sam Weller in Dickens' <i>Pickwick Papers </i>1837 who mixed up "V" and "W" in his speech. The broadside describes Weller's trial: "Yesterday a gentleman of a <i>silky </i>appearance and prepossessing manners was placed at the bar charged with clipping cutting maiming and otherwise disfiguring the lawful language of His Majesty's subjects so as to render it quite unintelligible to all plain-spoken Englishmen.The first witness for the prosecution was the letter V; who stated that on several public occasions but more particularly at Wardmotes and Vestries the defendant had most shamelessly mangled and ill used him.The only witness for the defendant was a Mr. Bos i.e. "Boz" Charles Dickens who said he had known the defendant some time and always considered him a harmless silly man.The jury immediately found the defendant guilty but recommended him to mercy on account of his former good conduct." Not in <b>OCLC </b>or <b>COPAC </b>nor an Dickens reference we have consulted. Somewhat wrinkled and mildly dusty. Tuck & Co. Printers

Eckel pp. 140-42; Kitton pp. 177-83; Gimbel Collection B-64. ◆Spines evenly sunned to tan as usual with green morocco faint offsetting from final plate otherwise A VERY FINE COPY with only the most trivial imperfections internally and in a sparkling binding.<br/> <br/> This is an extraordinarily attractive copy of the biography of Joseph Grimaldi 1779-1837 called by Britannica "the most celebrated of English clowns" and generally considered without equal as a clown of pantomime. There has been much debate about the exact nature of Dickens' role in the writing of this book. Forster said that Dickens wrote only the introductory chapter; others have said that he edited the manuscript with the help of his father; and Bentley has stated in print that Dickens wrote a significant portion of the work. Eckel says "It is plain that the last chapter is in Dickens' style and that other parts of the book are his. Grimaldi laid the foundation for his memoirs but in a rough and diffuse manner. He gave the manuscript to Thomas Egerton Wilks who after some condensing sold the manuscript to Bentley who in turn passed it to Dickens for the purpose of embroidery." According to Kitton copies with the frame around the final plate as here are more valuable than others because of their relative scarcity; the border was added without Dickens' consent and when he expressed his displeasure it was quickly removed. The especially pretty Riviere binding is typical of the firm's first-rate work and use of the best materials. Richard Bentley unknown
