Description: MASTER HUMPHREY'S CLOCK Author: Dickens, Charles Title: MASTER HUMPHREY'S CLOCK Publication: London: Chapman and Hall, 1840-1841 Edition: First Edition Description: Hardcover. The first edition in book form. Royal octavo, three volumes: iv, 306 p. + vi, 306 p. + vi, 426 p. with illustrations by George Cattermole and Hablot Browne. In one-quarter brown calf over marbled paper bindings, with a black morocco spine label, five raised bands, decorative gilt and blind stamping, and marbled endpaper and edges. Light foxing to the prefatory and concluding leaves, with a bit of dust staining to the top edges. The boards are slightly shelfworn, with some scuffing to the leather; otherwise very good.A key, though often overlooked, part of the Dickens canon, containing the first appearances of both The Old Curiosity Shop and Barnaby Rudge, and resurrecting Samuel Pickwick, Samuel Weller, and other memorable characters. Master Humphrey's Clock ran weekly from April 4, 1840 to December 4, 1841. Very good.
