Beschreibung

Small pamphlet bound in gray printed wrappers. 49 pages. Dickens wrote this short piece under the pseudonym Timothy Sparks in 1836. As printed on the front cover, this is a reproduction in exact fac-simile of the excessively rare original. One of two reprints printed in 1884, it has been argued that the Jarvis copy proceeds the Pearson [of Manchester] , making this the second edition of this very scarce early Dickens title, however, priority is still debated. As per Eckels' the present copy does not have the chapter heading 'Sunday Under Three Heads' on page 35 and was issued with a gray outer wrapper. Collation: Printed front wrap with title/author/fac-simile statement/publisher; publisher's statement inside cover; [i-ii] intro dated Feb. 1st, 1884 {credited to T. J. Wise}, [iii-iv] fac-simile of original engraved title-page with blank verso; [v-vi] blank; [vii-x] half-title/ frontispiece/ title/ blank; [xi-xiv] dedication; [pp. 1-49 including two engravings, unpaginated]; 2 blanks, advert for Pickwick Paper; last 5 pages Jarvis adverts, including rear cover. Old crease, very mild, down center of pamphlet, else a fine copy. Near fine. Size: 16mo - over 5¾" - 6¾" tall. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 007934
