The Cricket on the Hearth. by DICKENS, Charles

London: Bradbury and Evans, 1846. Half calf, 6 1/2 inches tall. A neat little Victorian binding with gilt raised bands, twin labels and gilt pallets. All edges gilt. The Author's label has been damaged and rather crudely repaired. The engraved frontispiece and title page have been trimmed. 2 ink inscriptions, the first dated Dec. 25. 1845 on the second blank. A very clean example of one of Dickens' great Christmas Books
