1824ref. 55402London: Henry Moses 1824. First edition. Hardcover. Very good to fine condition. Oblong Octavo. 20 etchings plus original illustrated wrappers. Bound in Royal blue leather retaining original wraps; gilt lettering and ruling on leather label mounted to spine. Cream endpapers. Tan wrappers with etching and brown lettering on front back cover plain. Our collection of "Sketches of Shipping" on the River Thames appears to be the earliest state published by Henry Moses with front wrappers dated Dec. 1 1824 and all twenty etchings dated in plates Oct. 1 1824. An 1826 advertisement in the Quarterly Review indicated that six parts of the Sketches with five engravings each had been published up to that time and announces the publication of two additional issues. The front wrapper stating publication date as Dec. 1 1824 as in our copy appears to have been used in various editions including some containing eleven plates dated March 1 1825 in plates or lettered in ink "Nos. 5 & 6" corresponding to the 1826 Quarterly Review advertisement. The irregularities and/or contradictions in tracing the publication of these Moses etchings suggest that due to the constrictions of the medium these popular etchings were published in limited numbers in variant editions as identified by the dates in these plates to satisfy the public demand of the time. In our copy all 20 etchings are dated in plates Oct. 1 1824 with two of the plates containing additional dates etched into the plates as indicated below: 1. Sailing Match Aug. 16 1824 2. An Indianian in Barnard's Yard Deptford 3. Trafalgar 120 G 125 4. Midway 5. Midway Aug. 9 1824 6. Blackwall. Dutches of M. 7. Blackwall Basin 8. Trafalgar P - 120 Guns 9.

1824ref. 4504491London 1 Portland Place Wandsworth Road: by Henry Moses 1824. Slight staining and creasing some wear at edges spine neatly strengthened. 11 etched plates 193 x 282 mm; original illustrated brown paper wrappers. A scarce series of privately-published etchings of shipping in the London Dockyards. This section of Henry Moses' publication comprises his complete series on London's Docklands. An advertisement in the Quarterly Review 1826 shows that he had then published altogether six parts of his Sketches of Shippng by that date with a further two announced.

The first ten etchings depicted shipping on the Thames the second ten showed Sheerness and the Medway while the final ten depicted life on London's docks. The present copy lettered in ink "Nos 5 & 6" actually contains 11 plates although the advertisement in fact only calls for nine plates in the these two parts. There are five with the shared title "London Docks" as against four called for in the advertisement while the eleventh plate differing in style to the others probably comes from an earlier part. 1. Vessels off the Tower Two-masted ship with numerous sightseers in rowed boats in the foreground 2. Limehouse Sailing ship being unloaded by crane at pier. A sailing barge is on the river. In the foreground a rowing boat and anchor are visible on the shore. 3. Blackwall Reach with the Columbus in the Distance A cutter in Blackwall Reach with another beyond on the right. The four-masted barque Columbus a vast 300-foot Canadian-built experimental timber carrier is seen as a long grey hull in the distance stretching from the centre or the image to the right edge. 4.

Henry Moses c.1782-1870 was prolific and "worked throughout the first half of the present century enjoying a great reputation for his outline plates which are distinguished for the purity and correctness of the drawing. His art was peculiarly suited to the representation of sculpture and antiquities and he published many sets of plates of that class; he was one of the engravers employed upon the official publication Ancient Marbles in the British Museum 1812-1845" DNB. This delightful series was one that he produced on his own account. It is very scarce on the market. The British Museum's set for example comprises just the first four parts bound together.
