SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR, IN BLACK PEN, WITHOUT DEDICATION, ON TITLE PAGE. Some edge wear and creasing to top and bottom of unlaminated jacket and spine, corners rubbed, spine and strip of back jacket faded, not price clipped (£16.99), no other inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, overall a vg+ copy. 468pp, illustrated. From a parish workhouse to the heart of the industrial revolution, from debtors' jail to Cambridge University and a prestigious London church, Robert Blincoe's political, personal and turbulent story illuminates the Dickensian age like never before. In 1792 as revolution, riot and sedition spread across Europe, Robert Blincoe was born in the calm of rural St Pancras parish. At four he was abandoned to a workhouse, never to see his family again. At seven, he was sent 200 miles north to work in one of the cotton mills of the dawning industrial age. He suffered years of unrelenting abuse, a life dictated by the inhuman rhythm of machines. Like Dickens' most famous character, Blincoe rebelled after years of servitude. He fought back against the mill owners, earning beatings but gaining self respect. He joined the campaign to protect children, gave evidence to a Royal Commission into factory conditions and worked with extraordinary tenacity to keep his own children from the factories. His life was immortalised in one of the most remarkable biographies ever written 'A Memoir of Robert Blincoe'. Very scarce signed. Signed by Author(s).

3 col. plates, printed on india paper and mounted on larger leaves, loosely inserted in a simple cream wrapper titled in ms. 'From F.W. Pailthorpe, 11 June 1885'. See Gimbel H138. These three hand-coloured proofs formed part of the suite of 21 designs by Pailthorpe published by Robson & Kerslake in 1886. The images here are The Antic Fellow and Sikes, Bumble Triumphant, and Noah Claypole Running for Mr. Bumble, the last of which has been titled by Pailthorpe in pencil. All are signed (one with initials only). They were clearly sent to the same recipient, who kept them together in a simple paper wrapper.

First edition. An original full-color illustration of Bill Sykes, the villain in Oliver Twist, executed by Kyd. No date but probably ca. 1920s. Captioned Bill Sykes, Oliver Twist, and signed as Kyd. Approximately 3 3/4 x 5?, matted, glazed, and framed. A richly colored watercolor. Wikipedia says: "Joseph Clayton Clark (1857 - 8 August 1937), who worked under the pseudonym "Kyd", was a British artist best known for his illustrations of characters from the novels of Charles Dickens. The artwork was published in magazines or sold as watercolor paintings, rather than included in an edition of the novels." Fine bright picture in fine condition, but not examined out of the frame.

Published by Robson & Kerslake within their 1885 edition of Dickens's Oliver Twist, and later published as Twenty-one illustrations to Oliver Twist the following year by the same publishers. In 1899, George Somes Layard wrote that Pailthorpe was "the last illustrator to carry on the tradition of Cruikshank and H. K. Browne". Frederick W. Pailthorpe (1838-1914), the etcher and illustrator, also published illustrations for The Posthumous Papers of The Pickwick Club in 1882 and Great Expectations in 1885. The artist noted that, of his Dickens illustrations, "I don't think the Oliver Twist is the worst of the three". Simon Houfe states that the artist's watercolours "are very Georgian in spirit and reminiscent of the work of H. K. Browne" (p. 250). The 20 watercolours, presented here, are titled: 1. "Oliver is taken to the workhouse", 2. "Goodness gracious! is that you, Mr Bumble, Sir?", 3. "Did you want a coffin, Sir?", 4. "Noah Claypole running for Mr Bumble", 5. "Good-bye, dear! God bless you!", 6. "Hullo! my covey, what's the row?", 7. "The merry old gentleman's pretty little game", 8. "The return of the boys without Oliver", 9. "Look here! do you see this?", 10. "The horse whose health had been drunk", 11. "Inexplicable conduct of Mr Bumble", 12. "The Free and Easy", 13. "Master O-li-ver!", 14. "Bumble Triumphant", 15. "Mr Crackit's good natur'", 16. "Has it long gone the half-hour?", 17. "A foul deed", 18. "The antic fellow and Sikes", 19. "The inconvenience of having long legs", 20. "Don't come near me, you monster!" This set lacks the final illustration ("Mr Claypole earning a genteel subsistence") and an autograph letter signed from the illustrator to an early owner, which are noted in previous auction records. Nevertheless, original artwork for Dickens novels is rare and this is a very attractive group. Provenance: C. E. Lauriat (c. 1913); Seth E. Thomas, Jr. (sold Parke-Bernet Galleries, 10/11 January 1949); Saul Cohn (sold Parke-Bernet Galleries, 18/19 October 1955). Layard, "Suppressed Plates", The Pall Mall Magazine, March 1899, pp. 341-8; Houfe, The Dictionary of 19th Century British Book Illustrators and Caricaturists, 1998. 20 original drawings (average 100 x 80 mm) on tissue paper (average 135 x 100 mm), each laid down to boards (216 x 137mm), pencil and watercolour, each captioned and signed ("F.W. Pailthorpe"), first board inscribed "These 21 sketches to Oliver Twist are by me - F.W. Pailthorpe". Housed in a custom full green morocco folding case by Riviere. Watercolours bright and unfaded, some consistent browning, closed tears to tissue paper for nine watercolours (numbers 1, 3, 5, 7, 8, 10, 17, 18 and 20); folding case sunned at spine with losses to watered silk lining. A very good set.
