A Christmas Carol Hardcover - 2018
by Charles Dickens; Arthur Rackham (Illustrator)
Lovers of fiction, Dickens novels, picture books, and Christmas itself will delight in this magnificent hardcover edition of the traditional tale, featuring 12 full-page color plates and 18 black-and-white images.
About this book
The publication of the first edition was fraught with complications, and even though the book was received to positive reviews, profits of the book fell far below Dickens' expectations, and the financial strain caused rifts between Dickens and the original publisher, Chapman & Hall.
First Edition Identification
The initial publication of A Christmas Carol was challenged by several issues, and those issues are evident in some of the first edition identification notes. The final product of the first edition was printed with a red cloth binding with gilded pages and yellow endpapers. The very first copies were printed with green endpapers, and those copies are exceptionally rare.
The first edition contains four colored illustrations and four black and white illustrations. In the first edition, Stave I is printed with the roman numeral, while later editions spell out the number to be printed as Stave One.
