1844014RAD60Published for the Proprietors Ingram and Cooke Printers London: . 1844 pp. ii 360. Color lithographed illuminated title page and two chapter heads. Numerous fine line woodcuts used as additional chapter heads or illustrations. Five full page etchings four by Leech browned from the ink in this example as apparently in most others. Early half leather over marbled boards. Joints fragile. Large 4to. 280 mm. Hardbound. Very good. The editor Douglas William Jerrold 1803-1857 was an English dramatist writer editor and wit. He is most closely associated with PUNCH. Punch was a humorous and liberal publication and Jerrold under the pseudonym 'Q' used satire to attack institutions of the day. His liberal satirical inclinations can be seen in 'The Illuminated Magazine' as well. The featured illustrator John Leech 1817-1864 was an enormously popular English caricaturist and artist. Some of the articles are quite remarkable. Often noted are those on social conditions - prisons the poor etc. The articles illustrated by Kenny Meadows 1790-1874 are especially interesting and include one on witchcraft. Another fascinating article we've never seen previously noted is on BOWIE KNIVES. It bears illustrations from one of the Sheffield England manufacturers that exported so many Bowie Knives to the U.S. They became almost ubiquitous in the Civil War especially but not exclusively on the Confederate side.
