Our Mutual Friend, By Charles, Dickens, in the original monthly parts as issued, complete with the original 20 parts bound in 19, in the original green wrappers, with Illustrations by Marcus Stone, London: Chapman And Hall, Piccadilly, a first edition, first issue, with “The right of Translation is reserved” in small italics at the bottom of the front wrappers. There are 40 plates altogether, all designed by Marcus Stone, and all engraved on wood by Dalziel and W.T. Green (21 by Dalziel and 19 by Green), all the plates are present, and the wrappers are housed in a green custom slipcase. The book was Dickens’ fourteenth novel and was published in monthly installments called “Parts” that ran from May 1864 to November 1865; the last installment had two parts - No. 19 and 20 - bound as one and cost 2 shillings, instead of the usual 1 shilling for each of the parts. It was also Dickens’ last complete novel - he wrote Edwin Drood in 1870, but died later that year, so Edwin Drood was only halfway done and incomplete when Dickens died. Our Mutual Friend also took longer for Dickens to write because he suffered recurrent illnesses towards the end of his life, and the illustrations by Marcus Stone that were engraved on wood by Dalziel and Green also mark a departure from the steel etchings in Dickens’ earlier works. The slipcase measures 9 5/8 x 6 3/4 in. wide and has “Our Mutual Friend, Charles Dickens, Original Parts” in black lettering on the spine, and the green wrappers are 8vo. and measure 8 3/4 x 5 5/8 in. wide. There are many points of issue present that we believe make this a first edition, first issue. The printer’s imprint (W. Clowe’s And Sons) is missing on the front wrapper of Part No. 1 and it appears at the bottom of all the other wrappers, as called for. Part No. 1 has the scare slip addressed to the reader bound in just before the first page of the text; the small white slip reads “The Reader will understand the use of the popular phrase OUR MUTUAL FRIEND, as the title of this book, on arriving at the Ninth Chapter (page 84)”, and Eckel (page 95) says it is a necessity to have this slip “to insure a perfect copy”. It also has the four-page advertisement “The Economic Life Assurance Society” in No. 19 (the ad is tucked underneath the uncut text on pages 257 through 264). Page 13 is misprinted “31” in the front ads in No. 10, and Hatton and Cleaver state that this misprint appears in a few copies. There are other ads which appear in these parts that are often missing too. Each part has the advertisers for “Our Mutual Friend” at the beginning of the ads in front. The Headless Horseman slip appears at the rear in No. 11 and No. 12; the yellow announcement slip for “All The Year Round” is present in No. 8, 12, and 18, and No. 18 has the rare yellow “At The Bar” ad on the slip for “All The Year Round”. No. 1 has the four pages of Thorley ads inserted at the rear and No. 6 has the orange Armadale slip.

CHARLES FRANCIS ANNESLEY VOYSEY (BRITISH 1857-1941) SIDE CHAIR, CIRCA 1904 mahogany, with a heart-shaped cut out on the centre splat and close nailed drop-in leather pad seat Dimensions:45.5cm (18 in) wide, 103cm (40 1/2 in) high, 44cm (17 1/4in) deepProvenance:Provenance: Dreweatt Neate, Newbury, 9th February 1994, lot 194.Note: Literature: Livingstone K. et al., C.F.A.Voysey: Arts and Crafts Designer, V&A Publishing, London 2016, pp.159-161 and 197, pl. 204, pls. 338 and 251RIBA catalogue SB115VOY[229], the original drawing for this chairNote: Voysey’s preferred material for furniture was unstained and unpolished oak. He did however specify other materials when he felt them appropriate, in particular, if the other furniture in the house was of a differing material or when specified by a client. He reiterated this to Arthur Simpson of Kendal in 1909 stating that “You must have oak everywhere or nowhere. I will not be a party to the mixture.” A scarce example of his work in mahogany was a commission from the painter Edward Hughes who asked Voysey to design a corner sideboard for his house at 7, Lodge Place in St. John’s Wood in 1898. Voysey obtained quotations for the piece from Frederick Coote in mahogany and deal and mahogany was chosen. Other examples include a fitted scheme in mahogany for Leslie Paton at 29 Harley Street, London in 1919, although no records are known for moveable furniture. An entry in Voysey's black book a G.W. Glynn at 8 Netherhall Gardens in 1910 includes a music cabinet and other unspecified 'furniture'. The current lot and its companion, lot 58, were presumably from a similar commission where mahogany was the more appropriate material.
