1911rif. HOLYTREE01Hodder & Stoughton 1911. Hard Cover. G - Good. H. M. Brock. First Edition. Dickens's The Holly-Tree Inn originally published in Household Words Extra Christmas Number December 1855. "The Guest" "The Boots" and "The Bill" parts one three and seven respectively were by Dickens the other contributors being his chief collaborator Wilkie Collins William Howitt Adelaide Anne Procter and Harriet Parr "Holme Lee". The colourful cover with snow scene of the inn and a carriage suggests a chronological setting prior to the Railway Age an impression that the 18th c. costumes of the ostler and his wife reinforce. The packaging or more accurately re-packaging of the framed-tale from Household Words suggests that Hodder and Stoughton were marketing the slight 40-page volume as a children's book for Christmas sixty years after its initial publication permissible under the revised provision of the Imperial Copyright Act of 1911 which implemented the Berne Convention 1886. Although Dickens died in 1870 and copyright on his works therefore ran until 1920 fifty years after the author's death the old provision would have given the publishers to right to publish the novella since under the Copyright Act 1842 the term was 42 years from the publication of the work or the lifetime of the author and seven years thereafter whichever was the longer. Even though the original work involved multiple authors this text contains only Dickens's contributions and therefore until 1911 would have been free of copyright limitations from 1897. The book is in good condition considering the vintage of the book but the tipped-in colour plates are in fine condition. 40 pages. Part Colour illustrations. 6" x 8" 160mm x 200mm. 1.2 Hodder & Stoughton hardcover
