Albert M Cohn; George Cruikshank: A Catalogue Raisonne of the work executed during the years 1806-1877; 184. There are no covers nor advertising bound in. Per Cohn, there should be 195 Cruikshank plates, however in 1841 two plates are replace by duplicates of 1841 plates, in 1842 one plate is replaced by a duplicate of another 1842 plate, and the November 1842 plate is missing. Foldouts from 1852 and 1853 are not hand-colored. Therefore, of the expected 195 Cruikshank plates only 194 are present and 191 are as called for. Additionally, Cohn calls for the 1835-37 to have been printed by Tilt, these have Bogue on the title pages. Overall, a worn and slightly imperfect set of the full run of the Comic Almanack suitable for savoring the George Cruikshank plates and text illustrations. Illustrated by George Cruikshank and Henry George Hine illustrations (illustrator).…
