Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. 1st Edition. [EDWARD VII]; BEETON, Samuel, DOWTY, Aglen A, JERROLD, Evelyn. Edward VII: A Play on the Past and Present Times. London, Weldon & Co., Wine Office Court, Fleet Street, 1876. 8vo. iv, 90pp plus publisher's advertisement leaves. Illustrated throughout with comic engraved caricatures and satirical scenes by "Whew". Original printed wrappers, lightly marked and creased with minor wear to spine and edges; internally sound and clean. A very good copy. A satirical poke, here directed toward the future Edward VII. The annuals formed part of the flourishing market for inexpensive illustrated political humour produced around Fleet Street in the 1870s. Attribution remains uncertain, with Samuel Beeton and Aglen A. Dowty among the names associated with the series, alongside possible contributions from Evelyn Jerrold and other satirical writers. Survival in original pictorial wrappers is uncommon owing to the fragile nature of the publications.…

Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. 1st Edition. [DISREALI, Benjamin] BEETON, Samuel, DOWTY, Aglen A, JERROLD, Evelyn and others. Benjamin D - His Little Dinner. London, Weldon & Co., Wine Office Court, Fleet Street, [1876]. 8vo. 76pp plus publisher's advertisement leaves at front and rear.

Dowty, and other contributors including Evelyn Jerrold, though precise authorship remains uncertain. Produced as inexpensive seasonal entertainments, such pamphlet-periodicals were heavily read and seldom preserved, particularly in original wrappers.…
