II lifting and creased, spines generally a little browned and bumped, some sunfading, light stains on rear covers). FIRST EDITION IN BOOK FORM, fifth issue [described as 'fifth edition'], published 30 October 1861. The previous issues had appeared on 6 July, 5 and 17 August, and 21 September respectively. Smith comments: 'The first five issues were probably printed at a single impression and published with altered title-pages to imply and encourage a rapid sale'. Although a late novel, it was only the second entirely narrated in the first person, and like David Copperfield it traces the hero's life from early childhood. First published weekly in All the Year Round , 1 December 1860-August 1861. Eckel pp. 91-93; Gimbel A146; Sadleir 688; Smith II, 14.
