Charles DICKENS. The Life and Adventures of Nicholas Nickleb - Lot 14
Charles DICKENS. The Life and Adventures of Nicholas Nickleby containing a Faithful Account of the Fortunes, Misfortunes, Uprisings, Downfallings, and Complete Career of the Nickleby Family. Edited by "Boz" with illustrations by "Phiz". London, Chapman & Hall, avril 1838 - octobre 1839. 20 livraisons en 19 volumes in-8, brochées, couvertures illustrées de papier vert-bleu, boîte moderne en demi-maroquin rouge. Édition originale, publiée en 20 livraisons : exemplaire du premier tirage. L'illustration comprend 40 planches gravées de Hablot K. Browne alias "Phiz" hors texte. Exemplaire conservé tel que paru, en bon état. "The book has many interesting appeals, as notwithstanding the large circulation in the early days, and which was maintained throughout the run, it cannot be regarded as the easiest of tasks to obtain first grade copies. Those which have appeared of late in the sale rooms are in anything but fine condition, and seldom in such completeness as would conform to the known requirements which are here collated ; so that the offer of a pedigree copy would probably find many willing buyers" (Hatton and Cleaver). Deux feuillets de publicités de l'éditeur Robert Tyas manquent à la fin du tome 8 et 17. Un feuillet de publicité et deux planches détachées au tome 3. (Hatton & Cleaver, A Bibliography of The Periodical Works of Charles Dickens, 1973, pp. 131-160.)
