THE POSTHUMOUS PAPERS OF THE PICKWICK CLUB Milner and Company London o.J. (ca. 1890), 383 SS. gebunden (dunkelblau geprägtes Hardcover, kl. 8 to), gut erhalten.

LETTER: 3pp., 12mo. Bifolium. In good condition, on aged and worn paper. Kitton writes that he has received two copies of the Book Buyer for March, and is 'much interested' in it for two reasons: 'Mrs. Garlands flattering comments upon myself and my work', and 'a very generous notice of my latest Dickens production'. He finds illustrations 'excellently reproduced', and praises 'the careful attention that has obviously been bestowed upon the preparation of both blocks and letterpress'. Turning to another matter, he notes 'a query (no. 346)' on p.151, and wishes to provide 'an adequate reply': 'The satire to which "D. M." evidently alludes assumed the form of an unsigned article entitled "Who Wrote Dickens?", published in Macmillan's Magazine, June 1886.' He describes it as an 'elaborate jeu d'esprit' which 'satirises a paper that appeared in the Nineteenth Century of the previous month, the writer of which endeavoured to prove that Bacon confused Shakespeare's Plays.' He adds that the reply, the authorship of which 'has been attributed to Mr. Andrew Lang', 'declares with apparent seriousness, that Dickens was but the amanuensis of Mr Herbert Spencer, and that the latter (not Darwin, as intimated by "D. M.") was the actual author of "Pickwick," etc.' CARD: With postage stamp and three postmarks. Addressed 'To the Editor of The Book Buyer, | Messrs. C. Scribner's Sons | New York City | U. S. A.' Headed 'Reply to Query 352.' Regarding the 'meaning of Thackeray's expression "my yellow books"', he writes that it is 'traceable to the fact that when his novels originally appeared in serial form each number was contained in a yellow wrapper, to distinguish them, probably, from Dickens's stories, which were similarly published in parts with green wrappers.'.…

8vo. 2 pp. Mourning border. To Thomasina Ross, translator of "El Buscapié," a pastiche of Cervantes by Adolfo de Castro y Rossi, published in Spanish in 1844 and which deceived many scholars. Dickens looks forward to reading it by the fireside and mentions a portrait of Cervantes that cannot be confused with that of Castro.I thank you very cordially for your kind recollection of me. I look forward to putting my feet on the fender tonight, and thoroughly enjoying a prodigious cold in the head, and El Buscapie, together. It is comfortable to see this portrait of Cervantes. It strikes me that the former one must be a true likeness of the rash and miserable man who produced a second part of Don Quixote, and that his unworthy visage has come to be confounded in the mind of some collector with that of our immortal friend.I am very sorry to hear of your father's indisposition. But it is very pleasant to me to be remember of him, and I hope you will tell him so with my warm regards. []".…
