‎New York: Scribner 1874. 12mo pp. 1-4 i-ii iii-vi vii viii 1-413 414: blank 415-420: ads flyleaves at front and rear 55 full-page illustrations and title page vignette by Riou original brown cloth front and spine panels stamped in black and gold rear panel stamped in blind yellow endpapers. First printing of Scribner Armstrong's "complete" edition published at $3.00 and released in late 1874 or early 1875. This undated 413-page edition with 55 full-page illustrations was preceded by a Scribner Armstrong edition with title page dated 1874 with 384 pages and 52 full-page illustrations a copy of this 1874 edition has been noted signed and dated 4 November 1873 by an early owner. This earlier version was offset from the plates of the British 1872 Sampson Low edition and was offered for sale at $2.00. It is probable that Scribner Armstrong rushed out this early version to compete with the unauthorized edition published in Boston by the Henry L. Shepard & Co. in 1874. Scribner Armstrong's "complete" edition has reset text with printer's imprints on title leaf verso reading "Jas. B. Rogers Co. / Printers and Stereotypers / Philadelphia" and "John F. Trow & Sons / Printers and Bookbinders / 205-213 East 12th St. / New York." Pages 415-420 are publishers' advertisements with a single Verne title FROM THE EARTH TO THE MOON DIRECT IN 97 HOURS 20 MINUTES listed on page 420. The title page calls for 52 illustrations by Riou the spine panel for 53 but there are actually a total of 55 full page illustrations in the text as per the "list of illustrations." This "complete" issue published at $3.00 was probably released simultaneously with the "popular" issue 305 pages with 20 illustrations published at 75¢. In any event both editions were available by or before Scribner Armstrong issued the first part of THE MYSTERIOUS ISLAND in 1875 as both are advertised on the title leaf verso along with A FLOATING CITY and THE BLOCKADE-RUNNERS the latter noted as "just issued." Regardless of the matter of priority of these Scribner Armstrong editions this "complete" issue is quite scarce and it is a very desirable edition of A JOURNEY TO THE CENTRE OF THE EARTH.

‎CAESAR CASCABEL‎

‎1890. Translated from the French by A. Estoclet. Illustrated by George Roux. New York: Cassell Publishing Company n.d. 1890. Original light blue cloth pictorially decorated in black. First American Edition also the first edition in English. Quoting from a contemporary review cited in T&M -- Like most of M. Jules Verne's books it is the story of a journey. Some acrobats wish to travel from California to their native France and having no money they determine to go in their caravan northward to Bering's Straits crossing on the ice and make their way through Siberia into Europe. M. Jules Verne's travellers are generally successful: in spite of robbers icebergs and the Russian police the bold Frenchmen triumphantly reach their goal. Pictured on the front cover is the troupe with their horse-drawn wagon climbing into the Sierras while the spine shows one of them fleeing a grizzly bear. This undated American edition CAESAR was published sometime in the autumn of 1890 probably late September; Sampson Low's London edition CESAR was not published until over a year later in November 1891. This copy is in light blue cloth; we have also had copies in olive green and in mint green no priority. It is a near-fine copy light foxing on the leaves within but the light-colored cloth is remarkably clean and bright and there is scarcely any wear. There is a Christmas 1890 ownership inscription on the front flyleaf. Taves & Michaluk V037; Myers 7. <br/><br/> hardcover books‎

Original red cloth decorated in black gilt and silver all edges gilt.<br/><br/> First Illustrated Edition of one of Verne's great mysterious tales of travel: César Cascabel and his family have made enough money to return home to France from California. Unfortunately their trip east is cut short when all their money is stolen. Their only option is to return to France by traveling west via Alaska the Bering Strait and Siberia. Along the way they encounter Mr. Sergius a Russian with his companion Kayette an Alaskan native both of whom join the band on their trip west. However Mr. Sergius has a secret which may jeopardize the safety of the family when they reach the Russian frontier. Kytasaari This was the only Verne title that first appeared in this binding -- the cartonnage "aux deux elephants" which some other tales shared but no other has some of the front cover panels in silver as here. Not only is this the earliest binding style for CÉSAR CASCABEL but also the ad catalogue at the rear is the earliest issue dated 1890-1891. This is a remarkably fine bright copy spine very slightly faded but much less than usual and with none of the usual foxing within -- of one of Hetzel's most extravagant bindings.

First Edition in English of this new and brilliant narrative of adventures by sea and land embracing exciting incidents of the whale fishery in the Southern Ocean and the African Slave Trade all told in the inimitable graphic manner which has made Jules Verne the most popular author of the century from Munro's contemporary ad cited in T&M.

"DICK SANDS: THE BOY CAPTAIN is a classic children's novel with a strong plot and plenty of action. Some of its descriptive passages are excellent and many of them are instructive. The bits relating to equatorial Africa and the slave trade are scrupulously and dreadfully accurate as Verne makes sure to indicate by giving his sources and by quoting an extract from an account of the travels of Cameron." - Jules-Verne Jules Verne p. 138.
