Description
DICKENS, Charles (1812-1870). The Works of Charles Dickens. "Household Edition." London: Chapman and Hall, July 1871 - January 1880. Â
99 parts (of 101, lacking parts 49 and 51), 8vo (257 x 193 mm). Numerous illustrations. (Some spotting  and toning, a few soft creases.) Original blue pictorial printed wrappers, several parts unopened (some chipping and staining, a few covers detached or detaching, a few spines defective, a few wrappers trimmed); folding chemises. Provenance: Herr Dr. Arbenz? (signatures to front wrappers of most parts).
FIRST ENGLISH EDITION IN ORIGINAL MONTHLY PARTS, lacking only two parts. Chapman & Hall commissioned new illustrations for the Household Edition of Dickens's works, begun the year after his death. The Household Edition is scarce in monthly parts: we trace only 3 records of the English parts at auction, two of which were complete. Gimbel D66.
