Description:
NY, 1841.. A broken run of 22 issues from New Series, Vol. 3, 1841. These issues were in a binding at one time; condition is a bit ragged, disbound, so some pages are loose. Eight issues have parts of Barnaby Rudge, serialized (not complete), pirated. The issues with Dickens in are Volume 3, #s 12, 13, 17, 34, 39, 41, 43, 50. It was The Albion that first printed Dickens in America (in 1835) when they printed (without permission) A Dinner at Poplar Walk and several other early sketches, which prompted Dickens to pursue a campaign to promote international copyright laws. These 1841 issues are uncommon.

Description:
NY: Cosmopolitan, 1928. First edition. Blue cloth designed and lettered in black. Some discoloration of end papers, faint edge wear, a bright and attractive copy in a very good pictorial dust jacket. The jacket is scuffed, internally spotted, with some chipping to edges and numerous old internal tape repairs and reinforcements. Still, not a bad looking copy; not a jacket we have seen often. Humorous, episodic adventures on the Tennessee River.
