DICKENS, CHARLES The Life and Adventures of Nicholas Nickleby . London: Chapman and Hall, 1838-39. First edition in monthly parts, 20 numbers in 19 parts, with many first issue points, original pictorial wrappers, housed in a red cloth clamshell case. 8 7/8 x 5 1/2 inches (23 x 14.5 cm); 624 pp., 40 engraved plates, the text with the second issue reading "sister" on p. 123, p. 160 with the first state "latter" reading, first part lacking ads, most parts collating as Hatton & Cleaver, though with some back ads missing. Part II with a split on the front fold, part XV neatly rebacked in white, most spines apparently unrestored, a number of the parts with the early bookseller stamp "Sold by Thurman Carlisle." A cleaner than average set, with the Nickleby Advertiser in all but the first part, part XIII with the rare "Uniform Penny Postage" ad, some back ads not present, but this may be fairly accounted a better than average set of the parts. Eckel p. 64; Sadleir 695; Hatton & Cleaver, pp. 131-60 C
