A charming bit of satire with several amusing illustrations by ROBERT CRUIKSHANK (1789-1856) in a RARE surviving yellowback r…eprinting a popular piece from Matthews' Comic Annual, 1831. Isaac ROBERT Cruikshank was the talented brother of cartoonist and illustrator George Cruikshank with whom he sometimes collaborated. Evidently, Robert was quite unruly as a lad, for after he enrolled as a midshipman, his captain left him stranded on St. Helena! After finding his way the very long way back to England, Robert engaged in many cartooning projects--often assisting or following-up on series begun by his brother George, a prominent illustrator of Charles Dickens. Some soil and rubbing to covers, which are still attached. The engravings are clean though all pages are slightly age-toned. Robert Cruikshank (illustratore).

Aggiungi al carrelloHardcover. Condizione: Good. No Jacket. 3rd Edition. Saunders, Otley and Co. 1861 Third Printing 7 3/4" x 5 3/8" *pages loosening from spine* A humorous exposition of warranty law for horses, illustrated by Cruikshank. A lawyer prominent in the abolition of slavery, Sir George Stephen (1794-1879) practised as a solicitor and sub…sequently barrister in London, Liverpool, and Melbourne. Though purportedly written as an amusement for children, the work serves also as a treatise on warranty, with comments on case-law: 'Even an attorney's eyes are wearied with the incessant contemplation of white calf and red-lettered bindings; and it must be an agreeable novelty to find a circuit companion illustrated by Cruikshank's engravings'. Credited simply to 'Cruikshank' in the preface, the illustrations are attributed to Robert Cruikshank (1789-1856), the elder brother of George.

Yellowback Reprint. 16mo, yellow wrappers with pictorial engraving of paddle wheel steamers, illustrated with 7 full-page woodcuts with tissue guards and several small "devilish" vignettes, 34 pages + [2] blank + 18pp. Ads for Publications by Effingham Wilson. A charming bit of hu…morous satire with several equally delightful illustrations by ROBERT CRUIKSHANK (1789-1856) in a RARE surviving yellowback reprinting a popular piece from Matthews' Comic Annual of 1831. The poem underlying this comic take-off first appeared as "The Devil's Thoughts" in 1799. It is generally believed to have been composed by Robert Southey with subsequent additions by Samuel Taylor Coleridge. The subject became a source of other take-offs such as one entitled "The Devil's Walk on Earth," and Lord Byron's "The Devil's Drive" of 1812. Southey made substantial revisions to the poem in 1827, and Coleridge published it as part of his own Collected Works in 1829. Thereafter, a letter appeared in the February, 14, 1830 edition of the Morning Post with the claim by one R. C. Porson that the poem, "The Devil's Walk," had been actually written by his deceased uncle "Professor Porson," who is alluded to in the title of our jeux d'esprit as NOT the author of the REAL Devil's Walk. Isaac ROBERT Cruikshank was the talented brother of caricaturist, illustrator, and etcher, George Cruikshank, with whom he often collaborated early in their artistic lives. Evidently, Robert was quite mischievous as a lad, for after he briefly tried out as a midshipman, his captain left him stranded on St. Helena! Evidently, the captain liked to have a LONG last laugh! After finding his way the very long way back to England, Robert engaged in many cartooning projects--often assisting or following-up on series begun by his more talented and prolific brother George, a prominent early illustrator of Charles Dickens, who grew to detest the great novelist. Rather Bohemian Robert subsisted on small procedes from etching to etching but died at 66 from bronchitis (or TB). George Cruikshank memorialized his brother as "a very clever miniature and portrait painter, and also a designer and etcher." Robert's close friend, George Daniel, stated that "he was apt to conceive and prompt to execute; he had a quick eye and a ready hand; with all his extravagant drollery, his drawing is anatomically correct; his details are minute, expressive, and of careful finish, and his colouring is bright and delicate." Extremely clean, tight, and bright copy of this RARE yellowback with clean, remarkably preserved illustrations. Robert Cruikshank (illustratore).

Aggiungi al carrelloHardcover. Condizione: Near fine. First Edition. Quarto size, 212 pp. (not matching pagination, see below), with 12 aquatints by Isaac Robert Cruikshank. A humorous collection of sketches exalting through parody the merits of the thrifty. The writing, although very much a parody, contains many nuggets of truths which illuminate…how little the world has changed in the about 200 years since the book's publication: "Money, money alone, though it has been unaccountably neglected by authors, strangers perhaps to its very name, and still more to its practical use and management. . .is the mainspring of all human action, want, wish, and desire." The author goes on to state that it is the desire of "the Save-all Club" to keep "the Kind and Benevolent Reader" out of the grip of poverty through thrift. The "Rules of the Club" provide amusing proof of such virtue: Rule VI, "The smallest superfluous expense is not only a reproach to a member, but he may be fined by the Committee, for the use of the poor"; and Rule IV, "As a new coat never fails to attract animadversion in the Club, the members are requested to avoid that singularity as much as possible. If it prove that the coat is only turned, the owner shall dine that day GRATIS". Isaac Robert Cruikshank (1759-1856) was a popular English caricature artist and cartoonist, and like his brother George, is known for his pioneer work in the history of comics and comic strip cartoons. He collaborated often with George, who is better known for his work with Charles Dickens. This edition was originally issued in boards, and had pp. 39-42, 87-110 and 163-178 omitted, as is the case in this edition (and all known editions) and which is explained in a footnote appearing on p. xvi: "The reader will perceive an hiatus after p. 38, another after p. 86, and a third after p. 162. Some digressions occurred in those places on subjects too abstruse to be generally interesting; they have therefore been withdrawn; but in consequence of a temporary absence of the author, the suppression took place after the work was printed. As the connexion of its parts is not disturbed, it is hoped that the liberty thus taken will be tolerated with indulgence." Additionally, this copy has plate no. 11 bound as the frontis instead of being bound at p. 186. Each plate is marked, "Designed and Etched by I. [which appears as a "J" at this date, in keeping with the Latin tradition] R. Cruikshank," and bears the imprint, "Published by Thomas Boys Ludgate Hill, London Dec. 1 1819." ___DESCRIPTION: Custom bound by Bennett Book Studio, NY (with their binder's stamp on the verso of the front free endpaper), in quarter blue morocco and marbled paper covered boards, backstrip stamped in gilt, top-edge gilt, fore- and tail-edges uncut, engraved title page with the coloured vignette of a three-pronged candlestick (which is thrifty as one can burn a candle down to the base), twelve aquatint plates including frontis; quarto size (10 1/8" by 6 5/8"), pagination: [i] ii-xvi [1] 2-38, 43-86, 111-162, 179-240 pp., first edition. ___CONDITION: A near fine copy, the marbled paper boards clean and unrubbed with only a few, light stray marks, the leather shelfback smooth with a few light spots of rubbing and the gilt bright, straight corners, a strong, square text block with solid hinges, the interior is clean, and the volume is entirely free of prior owner markings; some sunning to the spine, light rubbing to the corners, some of the plates have toned with corresponding offsetting to the opposite text pages, one leaf (pp. 221-222) with the fore-edge bottom corner torn (loss of about an inch, only in the ample margins, with no loss of text); still overall a near fine copy. ___CITATION: Tooley, no 165, this copy without the final advertisement leaf, which "is however usually wanting". ___POSTAGE: International customers, please note that additional postage may apply as the standard does not always cover costs; please inquire for details. ___Swan's Fine Books is pleased to be a member of the ABAA.

This copy, as with all editions had pp. 39-42, 87-110 and 163-178 omitted, a footnote appears on p. xvi explaining: "The reader will perceive an hiatus after p. 38, another after p. 86, and a third after p. 162. Some digressions occurred in those places on subjects too abstruse to be generally interesting; they have therefore been withdrawn".

Aggiungi al carrelloSee the entries for the Cruikshanks in the Oxford DNB. 1p, landscape 12mo. On 20 x 11.5 cm piece of paper. Somewhat aged and worn, with small pinhole at head, and postage folds; neatly inserted in trimmed windowpane mount. The recipient is not named, the text reading: 'Mr Ryan was suggesting an idea of something come upon the Je…wess which is very popular after the manner of Bombastes and also a ballad part of which I leave as a specimen perhaps you will consider of it and let me know / R. Cruikshank'. Although Robert's brother George was responsible for a number of anti-semitic engravings, the reference here to a 'very popular' 'Jewess' is clearly to J. R. Planché's 1835 'grand operatic drama in three acts', 'The Jewess'. 'Bombastes' is a reference to W. B. Rhodes's 1830 'burlesque tragic opera' 'Bombastes Furioso', for the publication of which George Cruikshank had furnished 'eight designs'.

Missing last page of publisher's advertisements - Armorial bookplate of Almeric Hugh Paget, 1st Baron Queenborough pasted inside front cover. [Cohn 783; Rosenbach, Cruikshank/Widener, p. 230]. Beautiful illustrated Edition of this humorous short story in verse with Cruikshank's illustrations including frontispiece. This second edition was issued the same year as the first, with the imprint Alfred Miller rather than Marsh and Miller. Cohn notes that "The plates were issued separately taken on india paper in 4to, " price 2s. 6d.," in a white paper folding wrapper upon which is " Seven Illustrations to Monsieur Tonson, by R. Cruikshank. Proofs on India Paper," etc., contained in a fancy border." Our copy is an uncommon variant, which has two impressions of each plate mounted facing each other, one of each is hand-colored. John Taylor (1578-1653) was an English poet who dubbed himself "The Water Poet". He spent much of his life as a Thames waterman, a member of the guild of boatmen that ferried passengers across the River Thames in London, in the days when the London Bridge was the only passage between the banks. His occupation was his gateway into the literary society of London, as he ferried patrons, actors, and playwrights across the Thames to the Bankside theatres. Robert Cruikshank (illustratore).

He was the father of Sir Anthony Eden, who served as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 6th April 1955 to 9th January 1957. Charles Molloy Westmacott (1788-1868) was a British journalist, author, and editor of The Age, the leading Sunday newspaper of the early 1830s which specialized in scurrilous and satirical gossip about celebrities of the day, who sometimes wrote under the pseudonym Bernard Blackmantle. Westmacott was savagely portrayed by Edward Bulwer-Lytton as the unprincipled gossip-monger ("Sneak") in his England and the English (1833), and was known as the most notorious extortionate editor of his day. While he did accept money to suppress publication of stories, this was legal until the 1843 Libel Act. In the 1840s Westmacott moved to Paris, where he died in 1868.
