first edition
1846
by Dickens, Charles
1846. Leech, John. London: Bradbury and Evans, 1846. 2 pp undated ads. Original red cloth pictorially decorated in gilt, all page edges gilt.
First Edition of the third of Dickens's five Christmas books, actually published in December 1845. This is the tale about John Peerybingle and the fairy cricket that prevents him from becoming suspicious about his wife's sincerity. The illustrations are by John Leech, Richard Doyle, and to a lesser extent three others. This copy has the ad leaf in the first state, with the phrase "No. I of" at the end of the second line (rather than occupying a line all by itself); this is by far the scarcer of the two (truncated)
