About This Item
London: Chapman and Hall, 193, Piccadilly. J Menzies, Edinburgh; J. M'Glashan, Dublin, 1852. First edition in the original 20 parts in 19; 8vo, 40 engraved plates (including frontispieces and engraved title page) by Phiz (Halbot K. Browne); original pictorial lavender wrappers; the wrappers faded to yellow, several spines slightly chipped, front wrapper of the first and last part soiled; in all, a very good set, contained in a red cloth dropback box with black morocco label lettered in gilt on spine. Carried on both the inside of the front wrapper, on both sides of the back wrapper, and, intermittently from No III onwards, increasingly in later numbers, are various inserts at back and front of 15 numbers. One striking loose insert: the bright rose pink half-page ad for forthcoming (1853) Christmas tales.
