First edition, first issue with 'Stave I' as the first chapter heading and no text changes. The binding conforms to William B. Todd's first impression, first issue with the closest interval between blind-stamping left margin and left extremity of wreath 14-15mm, and 'D' of 'Dickens' within wreath on front cover in perfect condition. (The Book Collector, Winter 1961, pp. 449-454.) A Christmas Carol was published on 19 December 1843, selling 6,000 copies in the few days before Christmas. Despite its enormous success it was a financial disaster for Dickens. It was a separate commission requested by him of his publishers Chapman and Hall, with Dickens insisting on a fine coloured binding and endpapers with gilt lettering. Although it went into seven editions by May 1844 almost all the profits were absorbed in the expenses of binding, special papers, coloured plates and advertising, and Dickens found himself overdrawn on his Coutts account, and had to ask his friend Mitton for another loan. Dickens had requested the title be printed in red and green with green endpapers to match, but he was disappointed with the appearance of the green printing. The title was subsequently printed in red and blue, the title-page date changed to 1843 (rather than the gift book convention of using the following year's date), and the green endpapers replaced with yellow. This first issue copy appropriately bears an ownership inscription dated 1843.

On 13 December 1881 Carroll wrote to Mrs F W Richards concerning 'Child Friends', Ethel Barclay and Marion Richards and a proposed trip to the pantomime at Brighton. Letters are recorded to Marion Richards on 26 October 1881 and 8 February 1886. On 6 August 1881 Carroll had become reacquainted with Marion Richards and four others including Edith and May Miller. In 1894, when May was 25 years old, he records 'Dear May Miller was engaged to dine with me, but Mrs Miller wrote to say that there was "so much ill-natured gossip" afloat, she would rather I did not invite either girl without the other. No doubt it is Mrs Richard's doing: she means well, but it is a pity she should interfere with other people thus'. (Letters p. 1034).

Pour servir de troisiéme [-quartrieme] Cahier à cet Ouvrage, par Etteilla, 1st edition, Amsterdam & Paris: Segault, Legras, 1783[-1785], comprising: the third cahier of Manière de se Récréer avec un Jeu de Cartes; the Supplement to the third cahir (title missing?); Fragment sur les Hautes Sciences; and the fourth cahier (without the Supplement), 7 engraved plates, including folding plate at rear titled 'Horloge Planetaire', 3 engraved diagrams mounted on letterpress, occasional early marginalia, some minor light toning and marks, intermittent worming to lower blank margin, bound with Jeu des Tarots, ou le Livre de Thot, ouvert à la Maniere des Égyptiens, Memphis [i.e. Paris, 1788], worming as before, edges untrimmed, contemporary blue wrappers, spine chipped with loss, slightly frayed to edges, 12moQty: (1)Footnote: The Manière was originally published as four cahiers in 1783, with supplements to each of the cahiers being added in 1785. The Fragment sur les Hautes Sciences, present here, and a fifth cahir designed to precede the others, titled Philosophie des Hauts Sciences ..., meant that the final work consisted of a total of 10 parts. All combinations of the parts are scarce. The frontispieces to Cahiers III and IV are of Temperance and Prudence, presumed to illustrate designs from the author's cartomantic tarot packs. French occultist Jean-Baptiste Alliette was one of the first to popularise tarot cards as a means of divination and to make a living from the same. His work, linking tarot cards to the mythical Egyptian Book of Thoth, was published hard on the heels of Court de Gébelin and Comte de Mellet's 1781 hypothesis linking tarot cards with Egyptian mysticism, Alliette arguing a claim of priority over the two authors whose work had beaten his to the press. Alliette's Jeu des Tarots, with the spurious imprint of Memphis, has been described as "no more than a prospectus for his professional services." (Dummett, The Game of Tarot, pp.107/8)

Rare pack of playing cards issued by Richard Blome in 1675, giving instruction in the art of heraldry. At the top of each card is a shield giving an example of a particular aspect of heraldry, with description below. The suit of hearts has the armorial bearings of different ranks, from the king to a squire, whilst the other suits are given to the depiction of the various charges used in heraldry. For example the queen of hearts displays 'Beasts, or four-footed Animals', the four of diamonds shows 'Monsters', the ace of diamonds shows 'The Parts of Mans Body', and the king of diamonds displays 'The severall wayes of beareing of Lyons'. In 1685 Blome issued a book titled The Art of Heraldry using many of the illlustrations which appear on the cards.

Potter (Beatrix). The Tailor of Gloucester, 1st privately printed edition, [Strangeways], December 1902, colour frontispiece and fifteen colour plates, plain endpapers, original pink boards, upper cover with printed lettering and vignette of three mice sewing, rounded spine, very light discolouration to covers (generally in excellent condition), very light associated spotting to endpapers,16moQty: (1)Footnote: Provenance: Purchased from Henry Sotheran on 29 March 2000 (original invoice included). Linder p. 420; Quinby 3. Rare. Only 500 copies were printed. The story of the Tailor of Gloucester was first told in a letter from Beatrix to Freda Moore, daughter of her former governess, Annie Carter. Although Frederick Warne had taken up Beatrix's 'Bunny Book', as they referred to 'Peter Rabbit', and published it in October 1902, the author felt that they might not wish to publish a second book so soon, or that they might want to alter it too much. So she returned to Strangeways, the original printers of 'Peter Rabbit', and herself paid for a private edition of 500 copies to be printed. The book differs considerably in both text and illustration from Warne's later edition of 1903. Of all her books 'The Tailor of Gloucester' remained Beatrix Potter's own favourite. The text of this privately printed edition is substantially longer than in the published edition, as Frederick Warne insisted on cuts to the text. 'Evidently, with some regret, Beatrix Potter crossed through the eight or nine pages of text where she had described in detail how Simpkin wandered through the streets of Gloucester on the night of Christmas Eve, where all the animals were talking, and the carol singers were singing. This is the part of the story which contains the majority of her rhymes and verses - but Warnes had asked for 'cuts'!' (Linder, A History of the Writings of Beatrix Potter, (1971), page 117).
