[7], viii, [1], x-xiv, [3], 2-624, [2] pp. Half bound in later dark green morocco over green cloth, spine with 5 gilt raised bands and gilt lettering, marbled edges and endpapers. Illustrated by an engraved frontispiece and vignette titlepage along with 38 additional plates by H.K. Browne ('Phiz'). Bound without the half-title, all else as called for in Smith (including the later state 14 line errata leaf). Smith I, 7; Gimbel A 72. A very attractive copy of Dickens' sixth novel. Some foxing, especially to the frontispiece and vignette titlepage, but most leaves and plates are quite clean.
