18411034London: John Murray 1841. First Edition. Fine Leather Kelliegram Binding. Fine. George Cruikshank. <p dir="ltr">DIBDIN Charles; CRUIKSHANK George Illustrator</p> <br /> <p dir="ltr">Songs Naval and National of the Late Charles Dibdin; with a Memoir and Addenda.</p> <br /> <p dir="ltr">London: John Murray 1841. First Edition.</p> <br /> <p dir="ltr">The Binding</p> <br /> <p dir="ltr">An exceptional and striking mid-19th-century nautical binding stamped "Kelliegram Binding" to the rear. Bound in full navy crushed morocco. The upper board features a magnificent large gilt-tooled vignette of a fully rigged galleon in full sail cresting stylized turbulent waves. The lower board is centered with a brilliant gilt trident. The spine is divided into six compartments by five raised bands lettered in gilt in the second compartment with the remaining compartments featuring distinct gilt nautical motifs: a pennant a camp tent a ship an anchor and a leaping dolphin. Finished with gilt-ruled edges intricate gilt inner dentelles solid endpapers and a gilt top edge. The absolute precision lavish tooling and premium materials are characteristic of the famed Kelliegram style produced by Kelly & Sons placing this remarkable piece firmly alongside the finest work of Golden Age peers like Riviere Zaehnsdorf and Bayntun.</p> <br /> <p dir="ltr">The Work & Maritime Significance</p> <br /> <p dir="ltr">This volume represents the definitive collection of Charles Dibdin 1745-1814 the undisputed master of the sea song whose music forms the absolute bedrock of the traditional sea shanty. For collectors interested in the tall ships era the Golden Age of Piracy and naval history Dibdin's works offer the authentic rugged soundtrack of that world-the very drinking songs working chants and tavern ballads sung by sailors privateers and smugglers below decks.</p> <br /> <p dir="ltr">Notably this text features Dibdin's wildly famous sea ballad "Poor Jack" the genuine 18th-century archetype that inspired centuries of maritime folklore and modern cinematic characters. In the era of sail "Jack Tar" or simply "Jack" was the universal moniker for the fearless and fatalistic British sailor. "Poor Jack" perfectly encapsulates the adventurous spirit of the men who lived and died by the unforgiving ocean dealing heavily in shipwrecks naval battles grog and tavern brawls.</p> <br /> <p dir="ltr">The Illustrations</p> <br /> <p dir="ltr">The volume is vastly elevated by the etchings of George Cruikshank one of the most important British illustrators of the 19th century. Cruikshank's brilliant style perfectly captures the grit and humor of naval life. Plates such as "Saturday Night at Sea"-depicting sailors drinking smoking and carousing below decks-offer incredible visual appeal and provide exactly the kind of authentic maritime aesthetic sought after by discerning collectors.</p> <br /> <p dir="ltr">Finding a highly thematic heavily gilt nautical Kelliegram binding in such a brilliant state of preservation is highly uncommon. The magnificent gilt galleon on the upper cover makes this an undeniable shelf-piece and a cornerstone acquisition for any fine maritime library.</p> <br /> <p dir="ltr">A book in fine condition. Measures 6.5"x4.25". Internally bright and clean with very little foxing. Extra illustrated.</p> . John Murray unknown
