BIBLIOGRAPHY OF THE WRITINGS OF CHARLES DICKENS
Warwick & New York: J. Thomson / G.D. Steichert 1904. viii9-108pp. 12mo. Boards paper spine label. Spine label chipped spine a bit darkened and creased extremities rubbed and a bit worn pencil annotations throughout endsheets tanned. A good sound copy. First edition. A good bookselling association copy inscribed by the compiler/editor: "To Charles Sawyer Esq. with every best wish from W.T. Spencer June 1904." The verso of the first preliminary bears an advert for Spencer's bookselling firm established 1884 and it therefore seems probable that he had a hand in underwriting the publication. Spencer and Charles Sawyer were great bookselling rivals in the area of Dickens and his contemporaries though Sawyer's firm was established a decade after Spencer's. J. Thomson / G.D.
