Dealer Notes
Smith USA I, 3, indicating the work was actually issued in October 1838. Overall a very decent copy of the first full American edition, hastily issued before the completion of a serialised edition which had commenced earlier in 1838. The Publisher’s Notice in Vol. I explains that due to the haste in presenting the completed work before the public, they regret ‘the illustrations by Cruikshank were not ready to accompany the manuscript from London’.
Author DICKENS, Charles
Date 1839
Binding Orig. drab boards, maroon cloth spine, paper labels a little darkened; corners a little rubbed, spines faded to brown & sl. rubbed at head & tail.
Publisher Philadelphia: Lea & Blanchard, successor to Carey & Co.
