First edition. An original full-color illustration of Bill Sykes, the villain in Oliver Twist, executed by Kyd. No date but probably ca. 1920s. Captioned Bill Sykes, Oliver Twist, and signed as Kyd. Approximately 3 3/4 x 5?, matted, glazed, and framed. A richly colored watercolor. Wikipedia says: "Joseph Clayton Clark (1857 - 8 August 1937), who worked under the pseudonym "Kyd", was a British artist best known for his illustrations of characters from the novels of Charles Dickens. The artwork was published in magazines or sold as watercolor paintings, rather than included in an edition of the novels." Fine bright picture in fine condition, but not examined out of the frame.

21 col. plates, printed on india paper and mounted on larger leaves, loosely inserted in pale blue wrappers. See Gimbel H138. Twenty hand-coloured proofs together with an engraved titlepage. Accompanied by a very nice covering ALS from Pailthorpe to J.H. White, in which he says, 'I forward a set of proofs (color'd) to "Oliver Twist" by me - as you said when you had the set to "Great Expectations" that you would like to have them when published. The price is 3 guineas - if you keep them - the same as "Great Expectations" - there are but a limited number to be issued'. Pailthorpe also mentions a portrait of Robert Cruikshank ('with my compliments'), but that is no longer present. The 20-line letter, dated Nov. 30th 1886, is signed 'Yours faithfully, F.W. Pailthorpe', and retains the original stamped envelope.

Published by Robson & Kerslake within their 1885 edition of Dickens's Oliver Twist, and later published as Twenty-one illustrations to Oliver Twist the following year by the same publishers. In 1899, George Somes Layard wrote that Pailthorpe was "the last illustrator to carry on the tradition of Cruikshank and H. K. Browne". Frederick W. Pailthorpe (1838-1914), the etcher and illustrator, also published illustrations for The Posthumous Papers of The Pickwick Club in 1882 and Great Expectations in 1885. The artist noted that, of his Dickens illustrations, "I don't think the Oliver Twist is the worst of the three". Simon Houfe states that the artist's watercolours "are very Georgian in spirit and reminiscent of the work of H. K. Browne" (p. 250). The 20 watercolours, presented here, are titled: 1. "Oliver is taken to the workhouse", 2. "Goodness gracious! is that you, Mr Bumble, Sir?", 3. "Did you want a coffin, Sir?", 4. "Noah Claypole running for Mr Bumble", 5. "Good-bye, dear! God bless you!", 6. "Hullo! my covey, what's the row?", 7. "The merry old gentleman's pretty little game", 8. "The return of the boys without Oliver", 9. "Look here! do you see this?", 10. "The horse whose health had been drunk", 11. "Inexplicable conduct of Mr Bumble", 12. "The Free and Easy", 13. "Master O-li-ver!", 14. "Bumble Triumphant", 15. "Mr Crackit's good natur'", 16. "Has it long gone the half-hour?", 17. "A foul deed", 18. "The antic fellow and Sikes", 19. "The inconvenience of having long legs", 20. "Don't come near me, you monster!" This set lacks the final illustration ("Mr Claypole earning a genteel subsistence") and an autograph letter signed from the illustrator to an early owner, which are noted in previous auction records. Nevertheless, original artwork for Dickens novels is rare and this is a very attractive group. Provenance: C. E. Lauriat (c. 1913); Seth E. Thomas, Jr. (sold Parke-Bernet Galleries, 10/11 January 1949); Saul Cohn (sold Parke-Bernet Galleries, 18/19 October 1955). Layard, "Suppressed Plates", The Pall Mall Magazine, March 1899, pp. 341-8; Houfe, The Dictionary of 19th Century British Book Illustrators and Caricaturists, 1998. 20 original drawings (average 100 x 80 mm) on tissue paper (average 135 x 100 mm), each laid down to boards (216 x 137mm), pencil and watercolour, each captioned and signed ("F.W. Pailthorpe"), first board inscribed "These 21 sketches to Oliver Twist are by me - F.W. Pailthorpe". Housed in a custom full green morocco folding case by Riviere. Watercolours bright and unfaded, some consistent browning, closed tears to tissue paper for nine watercolours (numbers 1, 3, 5, 7, 8, 10, 17, 18 and 20); folding case sunned at spine with losses to watered silk lining. A very good set.

Hardcover. Zustand: Good. 1st Edition. London: Richard Bentley, 1838. First Edition, First Issue with Boz on the title pages (replaced with Charles Dickens in later states) and with the Fireside plate (later replaced with the Church plate). WITH AN AUTHENTICATED SIGNED LETTER bound in a folder in the same style as the volumes from Dickens to Mrs [Georgiana] Morson, Matron of Uriana Cottage; AUTHENTICATED BY Dr Leon Litvack, THE Principal Editor of "THE CHARLES DICKENS LETTERS PROJECT" and Reader in Victorian Studies at The School of Arts, English and Languages at Queen's University, Belfast. The letter is unrelated to the volumes. Autograph letter signed ("Charles Dickens"), to Mrs [Georgiana] Morson, responding: "Yes, to both of your enquiries", 1 page, folded, very light dust-staining, 8vo, Tavistock House, 20 January 1853. From DICKENS TO THE MATRON OF URANIA COTTAGE, the home for 'fallen women' that he had established with Angela Burdett-Coutts at Shepherd's Bush, just outside London, and in which he took an active interest, often visiting several times a week. Georgiana Collin was born in Merton. She married James Morson, a doctor for St George's Hospital, in 1838. Shortly after their marriage, James Morson was appointed as Chief Medical Officer for the Brazilian National Mining Association. He died in 1848, leaving Georgiana with three children to provide for by her own efforts. In 1854, Morson would resign from her post as matron of Urania Cottage in order to marry George Wade Harrison, a printer and bookseller, and they settled in Sevenoaks. On 26 May 1846, Dickens wrote Burdett-Coutts a lengthy letter stating his desire to open an asylum for girls and women working in London's streets as prostitutes. The letter included planning for the asylum ranging from finding a property in London to a detailed process of rehabilitating fallen women. For example, Dickens suggests introducing a marks system and probationary period for asylum residents. Dickens located a home for the asylum originally named Urania Cottage in Shepherd's Bush, Middlesex in 1847. Georgiana Morson served as a dedicated matron of Urania Cottage from 1849 to 1854. In her book, Charles Dickens and the House of Fallen Women, Jenny Hartley describes how, "Georgiana Morson proved herself the best matron Urania ever had. she taught the girls to read and write, as well as all the household skills a servant needed. She presided over the dining table, and made mealtimes a social occasion the girls had not known before. They ate the good food she had taught them to cook and chattered about their future prospects." Oliver Twist; or, the Parish Boy's Progress. By "Boz." In Three Volumes. Vol. I. [II. III.] London: Richard Bentley, 1838. Rebound in three half leather volumes with a slipcase bound in the same style containing the letter. First edition, first issue, with the title-page author stated as "Boz" instead of Dickens and with the "Fireside" version of the final plate. Three octavo volumes (approximately 7 ¾ x 5 inches; 19.7 x 12.5 cm.). Volumes I and III in twelves (gathering of twelve pages), volume II in eights (gathering of 8 pages). Walter E Smith wrote an authoritative bibliography on all of Dickens works and these volumes have been compared to his collation: Vol I [ii Smith states iv this volume lacks the half title], [1], 2-331, [lacking 4 pages of advertisements as is often the case when books are rebound], all other first edition points are present save the Bentley imprint at the base of the 10 illustrations which have been trimmed historically; colophon Printed by Samuel Bentley to the final printed page; Vol II [ii Smith states iv this volume lacks the half title], [1], 2-307, [308]; all other first edition points are present (including for example, on page 151, line 3, a gap between the r and unning , and Chapter XXIX printed XXVIX) save 2 points and the Bentley imprint at the base of the illustrations which have been trimmed historically, 7 p.
