Dealer Notes
This is a fascinating curio — a homespun, amateur MS bibliography of Charles Dickens. Of unknown provenance, and produced c.1905, it consists of 37 pages, loose inside a cloth-bound binder, some of which are attached with metal pins. Within, the author has undertaken the exhaustive task of detailing details of novels, short stories, letters, speeches, contributions and periodicals, Christmas book, minor works — in short the entire output of that famed Victorian novelist — accompanied by their dates of publication. An intriguing item that is, by its very nature, unique.
