A propos de cet article

Text in three columns. A single issue, pp129-144, sewn as issued in orig. brown printed wrappers. Exceptionally well-preserved in custom-made double slip-case. 'Mrs. Joseph Porter' was the very first of Dickens's stories to be printed in America, appearing in the March issue of The Albion. Here it is printed without acknowledgement or permission, identified only as 'from the London Monthly Magazine'. Though not the first American edition, this does, nevertheless, represent a very early pirated example of Dickens in America, in first rate condition. Its earliest appearance in book form was as the thirteenth chapter in Volume II of the first series of Sketches By Boz (1836).
