ALS, one page, 4 x 5, Office of All the Year Round letterhead, June 21, 1869. Letter to novelist and journalist Eliza Lynn Linton. In full: “I had not the least intention of returning you the enclosed paper, and had ordered it—in sight of our long association—to be placed to your credit in the business account. That order I shall certainly not cancel (except under compulsion) but you are perfectly free to publish the paper nevertheless.” Letter is affixed by its integral second page to the second free end page of Volume I of the Victoria Edition of The Posthumous Papers of the Pickwick Club, with both volumes present. Autographic condition is fine, with a few pencil notations along top edge and some slight mirroring of ink near top. Book condition: G/None. Beautifully half-bound in tan Moroccan leather and brown marbled paper, with gilted textblock edges and embellishment on spine. Both volumes have worn edges with small tears at corners and spine-ends; splitting hinges; scuffing along spine; light soiling; bookplate and Dickens stamp affixed to front pastedown and fep respectively; tissue pages over illustrations yellowed; few minor spots of foxing. Volume I’s front hinge is entirely split, with the cover reattached from within (ffeps and pastedown stuck together along hinge from excessive glue); also contains pencil notes to second ffep. Volume II’s front cover is entirely split, hanging on by a few threads.
