The color illustrated characters of Charles Dickens, from Oliver Twist, David Copperfield, and Pickwick Papers among others. Joseph Clayton Clarke(1857 — 8 August 1937), who worked under the pseudonym "Kyd", was a British artist best known for his illustrations of characters from the novels of Charles Dickens. The artwork was published in magazines or sold as watercolor paintings, rather than included in an edition of the novels. This reprint edition contains 24 character sketches of Mr. Weller, Mr. Stiggins, Sergt. Bufuz, Mr. Pickwick, and The Fat Boy, all from Pickwick Papers. Other characters are from David Copperfield, Oliver Twist, and Old Curiosity Shop.

Even if it meant telling Charles Dickens he was wrong. In Eliza Davis's day, Charles Dickens was the most celebrated living writer in England. But some of his books reflected a prejudice that was all too common at the time: prejudice against Jewish people. Eliza was Jewish, and her heart hurt to see a Jewish character in Oliver Twist portrayed as ugly and selfish. She wanted to speak out about how unfair that was, even if it meant speaking out against the great man himself. So she wrote a letter to Charles Dickens. What happened next is history.
