8vo., Fourth Edition, with a frontispiece (original tissue guard present), engraved title-vignette and 5 engraved plates, free endpapers lightly browned, small neat contemporary signature on front free endpaper; original diced cloth gilt, gilt back, uncut, a very good, clean copy. With the contemporary blind stamp of City Book Mart, Newcastle-on-Tyne, on rear free endpaper. Hughes's sequel to 'Schooldays' was first published in three volumes in 1861. The first single-volume edition followed in 1874 and the first illustrated edition in 1871. Hall's illustrations proved popular and this third version was several times reissued. The current edition is therefore technically the fourth and retains all Hall's work. A very nice copy.
