Broadside. Dickens Charles 1812 1870
POLLOCK'S CHARACTERS & SCENES In OLIVER TWIST 6 Plates Characters 1 Set Piece 3 Wings and 13 Scenes. Total 23. With Book to the Above
London: Published by B. Pollock 73 Hoxton Street Hoxton n. d. 1st printing thus. Cf. Gimbel C35; Suzanette Catalogue E.35 showing this illustration; Suzanette TREASURES 30 also showing this image; VanderPoel B1091 all for the entire publication. Now housed in an archival mylar sleeve. Age-toning to paper. Small loss at two right corners. Very Good. Single sheet printed recto only. Wood engraved printing with 7 characters from Dickens' novel. Oriented horizontally: 6-5/8" x 8-1/4" <br/><br/>Item appears to be a leaftet-type advertiser for Pollock's work initially published by Redington and ostensibly the only juvenile dramatization of Dickens' work cf. Suzanette TREASURES. Estimated date of publication varies from authority to authority. VanderPoel gives c. 1839; Gimbel 1860 and the copy auctioned by Christies for the Self sale was described as "Post - 1876". We subscribe to this last as Redington's theatrical publishing firm was taken over by Benjamin Pollock in 1876 after Pollock married Redington's daughter. Pollock reissued many of Redington's plays with his own imprint as did many of the publishers until his death in 1937. Cf. Speaight G. History of the English Toy Theatre 1969 ed. p. 149 191-192. Published by B. Pollock, 73, Hoxton Street, Hoxton unknown

MR. THACKERAY MR. YATES And The GARRICK CLUB. The Correspondence and Facts
London: Printed for Private Circulation by Taylor and Greening 1859. 1st edition NCBEL III 830 & 1083. PRESENTATION copy from the author INSCRIBED at the top of the t.p. 'Edward Bradley / from the author". Late 19th C. 3/4 blue morocco binding with marbled paper boards & eps. Elaborate gilt decorated spine. TEG. Modest binding wear at extremities. Bookplate. A handsome VG copy. 15 1 blank pp. Binder's blanks at rear of volume. 8vo. 8-1/2" x 5-1/2" <br/><br/>The notorious quarrel between two of England's most popular authors began with Yates' critical review in Town Talk of Thackeray's English Humourists of the Eighteenth Century. Thackeray as might be expected was a bit affronted at what he viewed as a slanderous insult by this fellow member of the Garrick Club; believing much of Yates' information came from club meetings he took his grievance to the club committee. The committee sided with Thackeray and instructed Yates to apologize; Yates refused & was forcibly barred from club premises subsequently bringing charges against the club Secretary. Dickens absent from London as this brouhaha was brewing returned to find all in full force. He offered to mediate though primarily siding with Yates which Thackeray viewed as treachery. The ill feelings between the two did not abate for years until shortly before Thackeray's death in 1863. Herein Yates recounts the history & evidence of the disagreement with not unexpectedly a bias to his own case. This copy presented to Edward Bradley presumed to be the Victorian novelist who wrote under the pen name Cuthbert M. Bede. Known in Wise facsimiles cf Todd 425c the first edition as here just twice at auction in the last 30 years the last being 1977. A rare piece of Dickensiana; the first time we've ever been able to offer the item. Printed for Private Circulation [by Taylor and Greening] hardcover
