"The Posthumous Papers of the Pickwick Club" by Charles Dickens and illustrated with 43 illustrations by R. Seymour and Phiz - Chapman & Hall, London - 1838 first UK edition, early issue - 18cmx15cm - condition: rebound in half leather binding, with some wear and rubbing to boards, some loosening, name to ffep, staining to plates, page foxing, all plates present.

The Posthumous Papers of the Pickwick Club (also known as The Pickwick Papers) is the first novel by English author Charles Dickens. His previous work was Sketches by Boz, published in 1836, and his publisher Chapman & Hall asked Dickens to supply descriptions to explain a series of comic "cockney sporting plates" by illustrator Robert Seymour,[1] and to connect them into a novel. The book became a publishing phenomenon, with bootleg copies, theatrical performances, Sam Weller joke books, and other merchandise.[2] On its cultural impact, Nicholas Dames in The Atlantic writes, "'Literature' is not a big enough category for Pickwick. It defined its own, a new one that we have learned to call 'entertainment'."[3] The Pickwick Papers was published in 19 issues over 20 months, and it popularised serialised fiction and cliffhanger endings.[4]

Seymour's widow claimed that the idea for the novel was originally her husband's, but Dickens strenuously denied any specific input in his preface to the 1867 edition: "Mr. Seymour never originated or suggested an incident, a phrase, or a word, to be found in the book.
