Memoirs of Joseph Grimaldi. Edited by “Boz.”
London: G. Routledge & Co 1853. Finely bound example of Dickens' popular retelling of the memoirs of celebrated English clown Joseph Grimaldi. Octavo bound in full crimson crushed levant morocco by Baytun with morocco spine labels lettered in gilt gilt titles and tooling to the spin in six compartments within raised gilt bands double gilt rulings and fleuron cornerpieces to the panels gilt turn-ins and inner dentelles marbled endpapers all edges gilt tissue-guarded frontispiece portrait of Grimaldi with illustrations by George Cruikshank. From the library of Albert Hooper with his bookplate to the pastedown. In fine condition. An exquisite example. After the legendary pantomime's death Dickens was invited by Richard Bentley to edit and improve Thomas Egerton Wilks's clumsily written Life of Grimaldi which had been based on the clown's own notes which Dickens did under his regular nom de plume "Boz". As a child Dickens saw Grimaldi perform at the Star Theatre Rochester in 1820. The Memoirs of Joseph Grimaldi illustrated by George Cruikshank sold well to Dickens's surprise. G.

The Posthumous Papers of the Pickwick Club.
London: Chapman and Hall and Bradbury Evans 1858. Rare finely bound Library Edition of Dickens' first novel and one of his greatest works. Octavo two volumes bound in three quarter morocco by Sangorski & Sutcliffe with gilt titles and elaborate gilt tooling to the spine in six compartments within raised gilt bands marbled endpapers pictorial title pages. In very good condition. Housed in the binder's original slipcases. With the original invoice on Sangorski & Sutcliffe's letterhead dated January 3rd 1934 laid in. Few first novels have created as much popular excitement as The Pickwick Papers – a comic masterpiece that catapulted its twenty-four-year-old author to immediate fame. Readers were captivated by the adventures of the poet Snodgrass the lover Tupman the sportsman Winkle and above all by that quintessentially English Quixote Mr Pickwick and his cockney Sancho Panza Sam Weller. From the hallowed turf of Dingley Dell Cricket Club to the unholy fracas of the Eatanswill election via the Fleet debtor’s prison characters and incidents sprang to life from Dickens’s pen to form an enduringly popular work of ebullient humour and literary invention.
