(Dickens, Charles) Johannsen, Albert PHIZ, ILLUSTRATIONS FROM THE NOVELS OF CHARLES DICKENS.
Chicago University of Chiago Press (1956) small oblong 8vo. unbound signatures. xi, (i), 442, (2) pages
First edition. A complete set of reproductions of the 516 duplicate plates etched by Hablot K, Browne (Phiz) for seven of Dickens' major novels, beginning with The Pickwick Papers in 1836 and continuing through A Tale of Two Cities in December, 1859. It was Browne (1815-1882) and not George Cruikshank who made most of the illustrations that have given so apt a picture of the Dickensian world. Browne etched duplicate, triplicate, and even quadruplicate steel plates in order to keep pace with the printing process of the letterpress. Because they were etched, many of the duplicate plates show important differences which the author points out in his accompanying text. Illustrations throughout. A set of the unbound signatures of this book.

(Doolittle, Amos) O'Brien, Donald C. AMOS DOOLITTLE: ENGRAVER OF THE NEW REPUBLIC
New Castle Oak Knoll Press and the American Historical Print Collectors Society 2008 8.5 x 11 inches cloth with dustjacket 192 pages
As a copperplate engraver, Amos Doolittle (1754-1832) played an important role during the American colonies' war for independence and the early years of the new nation. He completed his apprenticeship in New Haven, Connecticut, around 1770 and continued to work actively in that city for over sixty years. His first known attempts are the views of the battles of Lexington and Concord--four plates that he engraved, printed and published in 1775. Even today, Doolittle's first attempt, although crude in workmanship, continues to be often reproduced.
Doolittle did general engraving and printing throughout his career. Maps for atlases and illustrations for books became his specialty, but he also engraved maps and broadsides that were published separately. Scholars have identified more than 600 Doolittle engravings, both signed and unsigned. During the course of his career, one of Doolittle's major accounts was with Philadelphia publisher Mathew Carey (1760-1839). This book contains excerpts from correspondence between the two, never published before, which reveal much about business practices of the time.

This book was written to complement similar works on Doolittle's contemporaries, including Paul Revere. There are chapters on various types of his work, including his tune-books, maps, illustrations, bank notes and more. The book also includes two useful appendices, cataloguing books containing his engravings and references to him and his work. Co-published with the American Historical Print Collectors Society, Amos Doolittle is a valuable contribution to the study of American engravings.

(Doyle, Richard) Engen, Rodney K. RICHARD DOYLE.
Stroud Catalpa Press 1983 tall 8vo. cloth. 206 pages.
First edition. Volume 2 in The Artist and the Critic Series. The book illustrations and paintings of Richard Doyle (1824-1883) are populated by sprightly visions of fairy nymphs, elves and knights in search of their fair damsels. As `Dickey Doyle' and later `Dick Kitcat,' he produced a series of impressive boyhood triumphs from the now famous DICK DOYLE'S JOURNAL of 1840 to his first published work, THE EGLINTON TOURNAMENT. Doyle's talent for fantasy with pen and ink attracted Mr. Punch who offered him a place on his staff at age 19. There, alongside John Leech, he produced a seven year output of inimitable grotesques, borders, a new PUNCH cover, parodies of social events and the American Gold Rush, and his one overwhelming popular success, `The Foreign Tour of Brown, Jones and Robinson.'
All seemed set for a lifetime of success at PUNCH until the paper attacked the Pope and the Catholic Church, deeply upsetting Doyle's Catholic upbringing. He resigned in 1850 and turned his back on a comfortable future for the uncertain life of the freelance illustrator and painter. This he pursued with half-hearted dedication for the remaining 33 years of his life. This important reference book has been compiled from much unpublished material, including delightful boyhood letters Doyle wrote to his father and letters to famous friends like Dickens, Thackeray and Rossetti. It contains the first complete list of Doyle's illustrations for books and magazines and a list of his paintings.
