1832ref. 34082London: published by Black Young and Young foreign booksellers to the King 1832. First English edition used by Webster as a template for his 1841 octavo "reprinted by E.H. Barker Esq. of Thetford Norfolk from a copy communicated by the author and containing many manuscript corrections and additions: with an appendix by the editor"; 2 volumes 4to; pp. viii i-civ plus unpaginated lexicon in triple column; 2 and unpaginated lexicon; the publisher's advertisements noted by Skeel have not been preserved in this copy. A good sound copy in mid-19th-century half calf over marbled boards rubbed and scuffed top of one spine with small chip; good and sound. One of the scarcest of the early editions of Webster. Of note is the inclusion of Joseph Worcester's "Synopsis of Words pronounced by different Orthoepists" extracted from the American edition of 1829 which was edited by Worcester and published prior to the rift that developed between the two lexicographers. As to the text of the lexicon itself Skeel notes that it "was reworked by the English editor and was not merely a reprinting."

1831ref. 71210London: published by Black Young and Young foreign booksellers to the King 1831. First English edition used by Webster as a template for his 1841 octavo "reprinted by E. H. Barker Esq. of Thetford Norfolk from a copy communicated by the author and containing many manuscript corrections and additions: with an appendix by the editor"; 2 volumes 4to; 20th-century half green straight-grain morocco gilt-titled direct on gilt-paneled spines; title pages a bit foxed vertical crease on the title of volume II; otherwise a very good sound and clean copy preserving the terminal advertisement leaf in volume I. Early 20th-century ownership signature in pencil of Arno Clapham on the least leaf of each volume. One of the scarcest of the early editions of Webster. Of note is the inclusion of Joseph Worcester's "Synopsis of Words pronounced by different Orthoepists" extracted from the American edition of 1829 which was edited by Worcester and published prior to the rift that developed between the two lexicographers. As to the text of the lexicon itself Skeel notes that it "was reworked by the English editor and was not merely a reprinting" which is likely the reason Webster chose it as a model for his 1841 revision. Perhaps there is an article on the relationship between this English edition and the 1841 octavo but I'm not aware of one.

With Thirty Finely Hand-Colored Comical Lithographs Heightened with Gum Arabic CHAM illustrator pseud. of Charles Amédée de Noé. Souvenirs de Garnison et des plaisirs attachés à la chose. Paris: Chez Aubert n.d. ca. 1850. First edition. Large oblong quarto 10 1/8 x 12 7/8 inches; 258 x 327 mm. Pictorial lithographed title and thirty fine comical lithographed plates all finely colored by hand and heightened with gum arabic. Each plate with printed caption below. Publisher's original green lithographed boards upper cover with the elaborate pictorial title design printed in black and red. Boards a little soiled corners and extremities a little worn. Internally remarkably clean and fresh the hand-coloring bright and well preserved. An excellent copy of this extremely rare Cham title. A wonderfully amusing - and particularly desirable hand-colored - collection of Cham's comic observations on French military life. The thirty lithographs present a succession of wonderfully absurd episodes involving officers conscripts cavalrymen and ordinary soldiers lampooning virtually every aspect of garrison life: military training and theory uniforms and grooming inspections discipline illness boredom relations between officers and men and the innumerable indignities of army service. The humor is characteristically Cham: economical in execution immediate in effect and dependent upon the interaction between the visual joke and the printed caption beneath each plate. The brilliant reds and blues of the uniforms together with more delicately applied coloring to the figures landscapes and architectural backgrounds give the present copy exceptional visual appeal. The application of gum arabic to selected areas further enriches the plates and provides a subtle gloss and depth to the coloring. The work is also encountered with the lithographs uncolored; copies with the complete suite of thirty plates hand-colored and heightened with gum arabic are considerably scarcer. In more than fifty years we have handled only one other hand-colored copy in 2011. CHAM pseudonym of Charles Amédée de Noé 1818-1879. French caricaturist and lithographer Cham published his first book Monsieur Lajaunisse in 1839 and from 1843 contributed regularly to illustrated journals most notably Le Charivari. He became one of the most prolific and popular French caricaturists of the nineteenth century producing thousands of drawings and lithographs satirizing contemporary manners fashions politics and everyday life. Several artists "followed in the wake of Daumier and Gavarni. Among the most attractive of the former is Amédée de Noé known as Cham that is Ham the son of Noah.it was said that he had 'an idea a day' for Le charivari.

Published by Aubert the celebrated Parisian house closely associated with the flowering of French lithographic caricature Souvenirs de Garnison is a particularly attractive example of the comic album at mid-century. Its generous oblong format allows Cham's compositions considerable scope while in the present copy the hand-coloring transforms the lithographs into exceptionally lively scenes of nineteenth-century French military life.

First Edition Bound from the Original Parts Complete with all six of the original front wrappers and the five leaves of advertisements at the end From the Bibliothèque Antoine Vautier CHAM pseudonym of Amédée de Noé. HUART Louis. CHAMPS Victor binder. Punch à Paris par Cham. Revue Drolatique du Mois. Paris: Lange Lévy et Comp. February - June 1850. Complete with all six of the original front wrappers and the five leaves of advertisements at the end. First edition bound from the original parts. Small folio 11 x 7 7/8 inches; 280 x 200 mm. 1-192 pp. Six full page engraved plates and numerous engravings throughout the text. The six original pictorial front wrappers dated from January thru July 1850 bound in at front. Five leaves of advertisements and one blank bound in at end. Bound by Victor Champs ca. 1900 stamp-signed in black on verso of front free-endpaper. Three quarter red crushed levant morocco over marbled boards ruled in gilt spine with five raised bands elaborately decorated and lettered in gilt in compartments cockerel-style endpapers. With the small octagonal bookplate of the celebrated collection of Bibliothèque Antoine Vautier on front paste-down. The commencement of Punch à Paris was in February 1850 and was intended to be a monthly published magazine however in June 1850 after just six issues Punch à Paris had to cease publication "The excessive rigors of the new press law oblige us to suspend our publication". Cham pseudonym of Charles Amédée de Noé 1818-1879 has collaborated in many satirical newspapers and has also published a number of albums of lithographs or woodcuts. Very comfortable in political and moral caricatures he is one of the first to give stories in drawings that will soon be called comics and as such occupies a key place in the history of comics in France and among the pioneers of the genre. Louis Adrien Huart 1813-1865 was a French journalist writer and theater director. From 1835 he wrote for Le Charivari France's main opposition satirical daily of which he was to become the most assiduous editor. In his literary and theatrical chronicles as well as in his satires of daily political news he constantly approached the legal limit set by censorship without ever exceeding it. Many legends of lithographs by Honoré Daumier came from his pen. Editor-in-chief of Charivari from 1848 he later became its editor until his death. He had the merit of discovering and promoting young talents from the new generation such as Henri Rochefort who without him would have remained a simple employee of the administration.

Paris: Chez Aubert Éditeur. 1844. Folio 13 3/16 x 10 inches; 335 x 254 mm. iv 152 pp. Twenty magnificent hand colored lithographs all heightened with gum arabic. Some light foxing which is mainly confined to the blank borders of the plates. The plates are by: Jules Platier 6; Honoré Daumier 5; Paul Gavarni 4; Frédéric Bouchot 4 & Henri Daniel Plattel 1. Publisher's quarter green calf over pictorial green paper boards smooth spine decoratively ruled and lettered in gilt in compartments. Extremities a little rubbed otherwise near fine. An excellent example with eleven of the wonderful hand colored lithographs by Honoré Daumier and Paul Gavarni. "The house of Aubert was ingenious in marketing its products. Its lithographs.were published one by one in periodicals like Le charivari and together in suites by the same artist without letterpress. Still a third form of publication was in albums made up of lithographs by several artists with accompanying texts. These collections most commonly took the form of volumes with the generic title Paris Comique which consisted of twenty colored lithographs accompanied by quite unrelated texts.

Some light foxing which is mainly confined to the blank borders of the plates. The plates are by: Jules Platier 6; Honoré Daumier 5; Paul Gavarni 4; Frédéric Bouchot 4 & Henri Daniel Plattel 1. Publisher's quarter green calf over pictorial green paper boards smooth spine decoratively ruled and lettered in gilt in compartments. Extremities a little rubbed otherwise near fine. An excellent example with eleven of the wonderful hand colored lithographs by Honoré Daumier and Paul Gavarni. "The house of Aubert was ingenious in marketing its products. Its lithographs.were published one by one in periodicals like Le charivari and together in suites by the same artist without letterpress. Still a third form of publication was in albums made up of lithographs by several artists with accompanying texts. These collections most commonly took the form of volumes with the generic title Paris Comique which consisted of twenty colored lithographs accompanied by quite unrelated texts. Aubert remarked that the resulting hodgepodge had 'a plan that is easy to follow for it consists in not having any' and in fact this was indeed a frugal procedure for reusing old texts and already published plates. The interest of the various volumes of Paris comique resides entirely in the lithographs they happen to contain.
