Description
DICKENS, Charles (1812-1870). The Personal History of David Copperfield. London: Bradbury & Evans, 1850.

8vo (220 x 140 mm). Engraved frontispiece, engraved vignette title, and 38 plates after Hablot K. Browne ['Phiz']. (Some browning and spotting.) Modern half maroon morocco gilt.

FIRST EDITION bound from the original parts. David Copperfield first appeared in nineteen monthly parts between May 1849 and November 1850. In his preface to the 1869 edition, Dickens writes: 'Of all my books, I like this the best. It will be easily believed that I am a fond parent to every child of my fancy, and that no one can ever love that family as dearly as I love them. But, like many fond parents, I have in my heart of hearts a favourite child. And his name is David Copperfield.' Eckel, p.77; Gimbel A122; Hatton & Cleaver pp. 251-272; Sadleir 686; Smith I:9.
