[Charles Agvent]

Cruikshank and 24 sketches in color by Cruikshank never before printed. 
Issued unsigned. Of a total edition of 1500 copies printed, this is one 
of only 15 Presentation Copies with the publisher's blindstamp attesting 
to such on the colophon page where the printed number "1473" is struck 
through and the initials "G.M." are handwritten. Acquired directly from 
the publisher's files, and most likely the publisher George Macy's very 
own copy. Slight rubbing to spine tips and along edges. Near Fine in a
