Excerpt from Catalogue of an Exhibition of the Works of Charles Dickens: January 23d to March 8th The exhibition presents in chronological order the works of Charles Dickens as they appeared in numbers or in volume form. Grouped around each will be found whatever has been available in the way of manuscript material and original sketches, together with a representative number of the plays, imitations, and musical productions founded upon Dickens's works. The Reading Editions and Speeches have been placed separately. Items of interest which may not be classed with the Works of Dickens will be found among Miscellaneous Dickensiana, together with works attributed to him, and a few of the earliest books about the novelist. We are fortunate in being able to show so large a number of original portraits and personal relics, as well as several important manuscripts. The catalogue is descriptive of the exhibition and offers no attempt at a bibliography. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
