Dickens, Charles
Oliver Twist.
London: Bradbury & Evans Whitefriars 1846. First single volume edition of “the most perfect of all the Dickens novels†Virginia Woolf. Octavo bound in full polished calf by Sangorski and Sutcliffe with gilt titles and tooling to the spine in six compartments within raised gilt bands gilt turn-ins and inner dentelles marbled endpapers top edge gilt. With black and white illustrations done by George Cruikshank. In near fine condition bookplate to the front pastedown. Housed in a custom marbled slipcase. A social novel that critiques the harsh realities of poverty and injustice in Victorian England through the story of its orphaned protagonist. Born in a workhouse and subjected to cruelty and exploitation Oliver endures a series of hardships including mistreatment by the parish authorities forced involvement with a gang of criminals led by Fagin and the constant threat of corruption. The novel exposes the failures of the Poor Law and the brutal conditions faced by the underprivileged particularly children. Through a mix of realism satire and sentimentality Dickens highlights themes of social inequality crime and moral resilience. Ultimately Oliver’s journey from suffering to eventual security serves as both a compelling narrative and a powerful critique of the systemic neglect of society’s most vulnerable members.

Original illustrated pink cloth with yellow endpapers; cloth quite soiled and bubbled front hinge just starting yet plates with minimal toning and foxing. A good sound unsophisticated copy and very scarce complete in the original cloth.<br /> <br /> § Thomas Onwhyn's additional illustrations for Dickens's Pickwick Papers intended to be bound into copies of the novel and very uncommonly found as a set in wrappers or as here bound in cloth. Onwhyn's additional 32 illustrations were issued in eight parts for the most part signed with the pseudonym Samuel Weller but some bear Onwhyn's initials. Additional illustrations were published for many of Dickens's successful novels. "Whether by the same or rival publishers extra-illustrations became part of the marketing of his works. the early sets participated in the periodicity of Dickens's monthly publications in that they were also published in monthly parts to be completed with the completion of the text; they were advertised on the wrappers and in the Advertisers" Luisa Calé "Dickens Extra-Illustrated: Heads and Scenes in Monthly Parts" The Yearbook of English Studies vol. 40 nos. 1/2 2010. See also OCLC 28011324: "First plate has same illustration as cover but without number of plates and price at head without artist's pseudonym and with a different date in imprint at foot: Decr. 9 1837 on t.p.

DICKENS, Charles; illustrated by BROWNE, Halbot K "Phiz":
'THE GHOSTLY PASSENGERS IN THE GHOST OF A MAIL' An original illustration by "Phiz" for THE POSTHUMOUS PAPERS OF THE PICKWICK CLUB. Signed and Inscribed by Charles Dickens.
Original artwork. c.1836. An original drawing by Halbot K. Browne "Phiz" illustrating Charles Dickens' first novel. Ink and wash heightened in white on paper. Signed and humorously inscribed by the author in black ink "Charles Dickens his X mark" upper right. The image measures 17.8 x 13.2cm. In very good condition with some toning and a few light foxing spots. Laid down and mounted. The mount measures 28 x 22.8cm and is inscribed in a later hand in black ink 'The Ghostly Passengers in the Ghost of a Mail by "Phiz". Housed in a quarter red calf slipcase and silk cloth chemise with titles in gilt to the spine. A remarkable Dickens artifact bringing together the author and his preferred illustrator at the very beginning of their career-long partnership. First issued in 20 weekly parts between March 1836 to November 1837 'The Pickwick Papers' skyrocketed the young Dickens from obscurity to the position of the best-selling novelist of his time. This is the original drawing from which the engraving was made. The printed illustration appears in reverse in part 17 of the parts issue and as plate 37 opposite page 523 of the first state of the published work in book form. The author's inscription is a wonderfully humorous reference to an episode in the novel when Pickwick discovers an old stone seemingly engraved with the words 'X / BILST / UM / PHSI / S.M. / ARK'. Believing it to be of Roman origin he buys it from the owner a farmer for 10 shillings and later takes it back to London where his lectures and findings on the subject are accepted by dozens of experts in British and foreign historical societies. Hoping to expose Pickwick Mr Blotton a rival in an upcoming election visits the farmer a Mr. Stumps and discovers that the illiterate old man had indeed carved the stone himself intending that it should read 'X BILL STUMPS HIS MARK'. Despite Blotton's best efforts Pickwick has the last laugh as all the learned societies eventually pronounce in favour of their much-lauded hero resulting in Blotton's expulsion from the club. Hablot Knight Browne "Phiz" illustrated 10 of Dickens's 15 novels contributing over 500 plates title vignettes frontispieces and cover illustrations each of which was approved by the critical eye of Dickens himself: 'By whatever means Dickens relayed his instructions
he was unvarying in his insistence that he approve the artist's preliminary sketches' Cohen. Provenance: Stuart M.

I found in some copies only. Neat repairs to the cloth first signature in vol. 1 strengthened boards slightly bumped and spotted but generally a very good copy with bookplates in all three volumes.<br /> <br /> § First edition in original cloth with the title page credited to "Boz" rather than Dickens and with the Fireside plate as the final plate in volume three. The first edition of Oliver Twist in original cloth is a cornerstone in any Dickens collection. Publication of the serial in Bentley's Miscellany began in 1837 and "when Bentley decided to publish Oliver Twist in book form before its completion in his periodical Cruikshank was forced to complete the last few plates in haste. Dickens did not review them until the eve of publication and objected to the "Fireside" plate.and also disliked having "Boz" on the titlepage. He voiced these objections prior to the publication and the plate and the titlepage were changed between November 9 and 16" Smith 34. Smith I 4.

In late summer of 1855 Dickens agrees to a public reading of A Christmas Carol already a much-loved work at Peterborough in December. He first read his ghost story of Christmas at Birmingham in 1853 and had reprised the performances the following year. "The public readings of Charles Dickens which were to play so large and in some respects so fatal a part in his life were from the start specifically associated with his philanthropic activities" Ackroyd Dickens p. 666.<br /> <br /> "Resuming the correspondence I had the pleasure of holding with you some time since I beg to say that I shall be happy to read my Christmas Carol at Peterborough on the morning of Tuesday the 18th of December. As I shall stay there but a few hours and shall probably be accompanied by at least two friends I shall not be able to have the honor of accepting your hospitality; but I feel greatly obliged to you for offering it. When the arrangements for the occasion shall begin to be in progress may I beg you to contact my friend Mr W. H. Wills of the Household Words office London. Mr. Wills will give him any information he may desire as to the time the reading will occupy and as to my own little requirements with a view to position &c."<br /> <br /> Dickens' readings were well attended and he gave memorable moving performances. In December in the midst of work on Little Dorrit which had just begun serial publication Dickens went to Peterborough and gave his reading at the Mechanics' Institute returned to London "where the people I met on their way to offices were actually sobbing and crying with cold"; up North to Sheffield for another performance then back to London like "an enormous top in full spin" and off to Paris to resume work on the novel in progress Ackroyd pp. 751-2.

[DICKENS, Charles].
A Gilt Bronze Low Relief of Charles Dickens.
Circa 1880. . Head and shoulders gilt bronze relief bronze relief of Charles Dickens in profile in a fine state of mounted on contemporary dark brown silver velvet contemporary gilt wood slip and mahogany frame. natural age patina making this a very attractive wholly original piece; overall size 405 x 370 mm.<br /> Following Charles Dickens's untimely and sudden death in June 1870 there was an international outpouring of grief since he enjoyed a wider popularity during his lifetime than had any previous author. There were numerous items produced to commemorate his life but the quality of this particular portrait makes it one of the scarcer ones especially in such very good condition. <br /><br />Much in Dickens' work could appeal to the simple and the sophisticated to the poor and to Queen Victoria no less. Technological developments as well as the qualities of his work enabled his fame to spread world-wide very quickly. His long career saw fluctuations in the reception and sales of individual novels but none of them was negligible or uncharacteristic or disregarded. Even though he is now admired for aspects and phases of his work that were given less weight by his contemporaries his popularity has never ceased.<br /> [Circa 1880]. unknown
