1837141491837. Together with Other Tales by Distinguished Writers. Philadelphia: Carey Lea & Blanchard 1837. Original light grey-green boards with red cloth spine and printed label. First American Edition being a volume in the "Library of Fiction" limited to 1000 copies issued in January 1837. The volume consists of the title tale by Dickens followed by nine other tales by other writers. This is the only one of "Boz"'s tales that having appeared in a British periodical did not then appear in one of the two book series of SKETCHES BY BOZ see Smith I p. 15 note 2. Instead it appeared in the British "Library of Fiction" in April 1836 and was not included in SKETCHES BY BOZ until that title was issued in monthly parts Nov 1837 through June 1839. In America Carey Lea & Blanchard published SKETCHES BY BOZ second series a month or two after this -- not including "Tuggs's" -- and then combined "Tuggs's" into a reprint of that volume in June of the same year. This is a good-plus copy general soil and edge-wear notably to the rear joint label rubbed but still legible half of rear free endpaper missing. This is acceptable condition for a book that is so scarce in its original binding -- as these 1830s Philadelphia volumes were bound up using extremely delicate cheap materials.

28075Original artwork. c.1836. An original drawing by Halbot K. Browne "Phiz" illustrating Charles Dickens' first novel. Ink and wash heightened in white on paper. Signed and humorously inscribed by the author in black ink "Charles Dickens his X mark" upper right. The image measures 17.8 x 13.2cm. In very good condition with some toning and a few light foxing spots. Laid down and mounted. The mount measures 28 x 22.8cm and is inscribed in a later hand in black ink 'The Ghostly Passengers in the Ghost of a Mail by "Phiz". Housed in a quarter red calf slipcase and silk cloth chemise with titles in gilt to the spine. A remarkable Dickens artifact bringing together the author and his preferred illustrator at the very beginning of their career-long partnership. First issued in 20 weekly parts between March 1836 to November 1837 'The Pickwick Papers' skyrocketed the young Dickens from obscurity to the position of the best-selling novelist of his time. This is the original drawing from which the engraving was made. The printed illustration appears in reverse in part 17 of the parts issue and as plate 37 opposite page 523 of the first state of the published work in book form. The author's inscription is a wonderfully humorous reference to an episode in the novel when Pickwick discovers an old stone seemingly engraved with the words 'X / BILST / UM / PHSI / S.M. / ARK'. Believing it to be of Roman origin he buys it from the owner a farmer for 10 shillings and later takes it back to London where his lectures and findings on the subject are accepted by dozens of experts in British and foreign historical societies. Hoping to expose Pickwick Mr Blotton a rival in an upcoming election visits the farmer a Mr. Stumps and discovers that the illiterate old man had indeed carved the stone himself intending that it should read 'X BILL STUMPS HIS MARK'. Despite Blotton's best efforts Pickwick has the last laugh as all the learned societies eventually pronounce in favour of their much-lauded hero resulting in Blotton's expulsion from the club. Hablot Knight Browne "Phiz" illustrated 10 of Dickens's 15 novels contributing over 500 plates title vignettes frontispieces and cover illustrations each of which was approved by the critical eye of Dickens himself: 'By whatever means Dickens relayed his instructions he was unvarying in his insistence that he approve the artist's preliminary sketches' Cohen.
