OLIVER TWIST or The Parish Boy's Progress. In Three Volumes
London: Richard Bentley 1840. New Edition cf. Tillotson Transactions of the Bibliographical Society. Fifth Series Vol. XVIII No. 2 June 1963; Smith Notes 5d and 5e. Publisher's original dark red-brown diaper cloth vertically-ribbed with gilt spine lettering imprint present; arabesque design in blind to the boards.

Three volumes: 2 331 1 blank 4 ads pp.; 2 307 1 blank pp.; 2 315 1 blank pp. 24 engraved plates by George Cruikshank. 8vo. 8-1/4" x 5" <br/><br/>Volumes I and II of the Bentley's fictitious "new edition" printed from the plates of the Second Edition with Vol III of the 1840 publication this volume entirely reset and printed by Schulze. Given the matched casings we presume the sheets were sent by the publisher to bindery at the same time and so sold as a set in 1840. Tillotson mentions having seen only one other copy of the New Edition at the London Library rebound and lacking the advertisements; Smith notes that it is "very scarce" and adds that the 1840 issue is also "quite scarce."
