THE ADVENTURES OF OLIVER TWIST; OR, THE PARISH BOY'S PROGRESS.

First single volume edition, revised and corrected. Publisher's original brown cloth, the borders decorated in blind to the upper and lower boards, gilt motif to the centre of the upper board, titles in gilt to the spine. Illustrated with 24 steel-engravings by George Cruikshank. A good or better copy, the binding square and firm, re-spined with the original cloth laid down, bumping and rubbing to the corners. The cloth on the spine is heavily faded and the gilt worn. The contents, with intermittent spotting and light offsetting to the pages facing the plates, are otherwise clean and without inscriptions or stamps.

First published in three volumes by Richard Bentley in 1838, this first single volume edition was substantially revised by the author.
