Mahoney. It is a handsome shelf piece, bound in half calf with marbled boards, raised bands, gilt accents, and a red spine label, with a bindery stamp from Maxwell and Miller of London on the endpaper. For collectors of Dickens, this pairing is especially appealing because it combines one of his best-known social novels with one of his sharpest comic works in a single illustrated volume.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"markdown prose w-full break-words dark:prose-invert light\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-pre-wrap leading-[1.7]\"\u003e[d]Author | Charles Dickens [d]Title | Oliver Twist; Martin Chuzzlewit [d]Publisher | Chapman and Hall [d]Date | Late nineteenth century (Victorian illustrated edition) [d]Binding | Half calf leather with marbled boards [d]Features | Raised bands, gilt accents, red title label, bindery stamp of Maxwell and Miller of London [d]Illustrator | J.

The marbled boards show rubbing and surface wear consistent with age, including areas where the pattern has thinned. The calf spine and corners have gentle rubbing throughout, and the raised bands remain well defined. Internally, the pages show age toning and light foxing, with occasional small stains and a watermark to the upper margin of the opening leaves. The twenty-eight illustrations remain clear and well printed throughout. A sound and attractive Victorian copy with honest age wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Austyn Marie","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50035239551254,"sku":"AMD-0256","price":310.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0896\/4623\/5926\/files\/oliver_twist._DSA01699.jpg?v=1758042194","url":"https:\/\/austyn-marie.myshopify.com\/products\/dickens-oliver-twist-martin-chuzzlewit","provider":"Austyn Marie Design","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
