Exceptionally fine copy of the first edition of Dickens’s first book. The Ewing-Manney set. Most of the sketches present here were previously published in periodicals, with the exception of "A Visit to Newgate," "The Black Veil," and "The Great Winglebury Duel," which are in their first appearances here. The preface is dated February 1836. The very fine condition of this copy is exceptionally rare. Eckel, p. 11; Sadleir 699; Smith I:1.
