The Life and Adventures of MARTIN CHUZZLEWIT 20 parts in 19

1843158901843. Browne Hablot K. "With the Publisher's Compliments" His Relatives Friends and Enemies. Comprising all his wills and his ways; with an historical record of what he did and what he didn't. Edited by Boz. With Illustrations by "Phiz." London: Chapman & Hall 1843-1844. Original light blue-green pictorial wrappers. First Edition as originally issued in 20-in-19 monthly serial parts beginning in January 1843 and ending in July 1844. With MARTIN CHUZZLEWIT Dickens reverted to the conventional method of serializing his novels with monthly parts each illustrated with two engraved plates; after NICHOLAS NICKLEBY he had experimented with the idea of a weekly serial under the umbrella-title "Master Humphrey's Clock" illustrated with woodcuts within the text -- in which format THE OLD CURIOSITY SHOP and BARNABY RUDGE had been introduced to the public. This set includes of course all forty H.K. Browne "Phiz" plates -- two each in the first 18 parts then four in the final double-number; all are in quite clean condition though browned in Part XVI and with darkened margins in Parts V and XIV. The vignette title plate supplied in the final part has the curious reading "100 " not as is often claimed an issue point but simply a matter of several steels being used to print the etchings simultaneously. As is frequently the case there are several wrappers that are "supplied" from other copies: the Part XV front wrapper is a carefully-amended Part XVII from another set and three rear wrappers IX X and XIX/XX were similarly transferred -- discernible only by the content of the inside advertisements. As for ads CHUZZLEWIT is one of the more difficult "Dickens in parts" to find complete due to the plethora of inserted advertisements. This set lacks a few leaves from the preliminary "Advertiser"s and maybe a dozen other individual insets; it also includes maybe ten insets NOT called for -- reflecting how haphazard this process of inserting ads was. Included are all three Christmas Carol slips and three of the uncommon E. Moses 32-page booklets of verse. Ask for further detail. The front wrapper of the final XIX/XX part is inkstamped "With the Publisher's Compliments" -- which we have not seen before. Condition is very good XIX/XX wrapper darkened some spines carefully restored minor edge-wear. Hatton & Cleaver pp 183-212. Housed in two chemises within a worn morocco-backed slipcase. unknown

MEMOIRS OF JOSEPH GRIMALDI

1838ST13648London: Richard Bentley 1838. FIRST EDITION Second State with frame around final plate "The Last Song". 204 x 125 mm. 8 x 4 7/8". With half titles and with 36 pp. of ads at the end of Vol. II. Two volumes. HANDSOME FOREST GREEN CRUSHED MOROCCO GILT BY RIVIERE & SON stamp-signed on front turn-in covers with French fillet borders raised bands spines gilt in delicately tooled compartments with scrolling centerpiece within a lozenge of small tools volute cornerpieces gilt titling turn-ins densely gilt with floral rolls and plain and decorative rules purple endpapers top edges gilt other edges untrimmed. Original purple cloth binding bound in. With 13 plates by George Cruikshank. Eckel pp. 140-42; Kitton pp. 177-83; Gimbel Collection B-64. ◆Spines evenly sunned to tan as usual with green morocco faint offsetting from final plate otherwise A VERY FINE COPY with only the most trivial imperfections internally and in a sparkling binding. This is an extraordinarily attractive copy of the biography of Joseph Grimaldi 1779-1837 called by Britannica "the most celebrated of English clowns" and generally considered without equal as a clown of pantomime. There has been much debate about the exact nature of Dickens' role in the writing of this book. Forster said that Dickens wrote only the introductory chapter; others have said that he edited the manuscript with the help of his father; and Bentley has stated in print that Dickens wrote a significant portion of the work. Eckel says "It is plain that the last chapter is in Dickens' style and that other parts of the book are his. Grimaldi laid the foundation for his memoirs but in a rough and diffuse manner. He gave the manuscript to Thomas Egerton Wilks who after some condensing sold the manuscript to Bentley who in turn passed it to Dickens for the purpose of embroidery." According to Kitton copies with the frame around the final plate as here are more valuable than others because of their relative scarcity; the border was added without Dickens' consent and when he expressed his displeasure it was quickly removed. The especially pretty Riviere binding is typical of the firm's first-rate work and use of the best materials. Richard Bentley unknown
