[CRUIKSHANK, GEORGE].

Original Drawings by George Cruikshank for Monsieur Tonson and Others (cover title).

NP n.d. Small quarto. (11) ff. With six original watercolor over pen and ink or pencil drawings, each signed by Cruikshank. The cover title is incorrect, as Isaac Robert Cruikshank was the illustrator for John Taylor's comic poem. Among the scenes depicted are: "Mrs. Gilpin's Return"; an illustration captioned "You'd better give over the child to me"; also "an antiquarian"; and "a Pancake seller". This volume is from the Eldridge P. Johnson library, and was sold as lot 39 in part four of the now-legendary Parke Bernet sale of 29 October, 1946. Bound in full polished green levant by Root, spine and panels decorated in gilt. Very light wear to spine ends, spine lightly toned, else fine.
