DICKENS, Charles. Little Dorrit. With illustrations by H.K. Browne. XX original parts in XIX. Bradbury & Evans. 1855-57
Original pale blue paper wrappers. Occasional sl. rubbing or dusting, but overall a v.g. set in custom-made brown cloth fold-over box.
¶Collated with Hatton & Cleaver. A well-preserved set of the parts, retaining all plates, prelims, catalogues, advertisements & slips. There are several extra slips bound in, not identified in H&C. With the slip in part 16, alerting the reader to the error in printing 'Rigaud' for 'Blandois'. Part I has signs of some very minor expertly executed repair work to spine strip, but all other plates are in a very good unrepaired state, with only minimal wear to heads & tails of some spines. Part 19/20 remains unopened.
