GREAT EXPECTATIONS. Second edition in 3 volumes. London, Chapman and Hall, 1861. 8vo. Pp. [4], 344; [2], 351, [1]; [2], 344. Volume 3 is bound without the publisher's catalog.
Later half-calf with cloth boards. All edges as well as the endpapers marbled.. Owner's inscription on front endpaper of volume 3. A Very Good copy, despite foxing to endpapers, moderate spotting and marks to texts, slight creases to a few page corners, and marginal ink calculations volume 1 p 67. The bindings are in Very Good condition with very light shelf wear. The marbled edges are clean and bright. The spines are attractive with the gilding and letter pieces in Fine condition.
Great Expectations was published as a First Edition in five impressions. The true "Second Edition" was published in 1862 as a "New Edition".
In this set all 3 volumes have ``Second Edition" printed on the title pages, Other impressions are usually bound up with title pages describing them as "Second", "Third", "Fourth", or "Fifth" editions, terms that Dickens himself used in correspondence, but they are not editions, rather they are impressions.
Press advertisements suggest July, early August, late August, September and October as the dates that the five impressions were published. This copy has all the textual variants of the second impression noted in list C in Appendix D of the Clarendon Press edition. The editor's own conclusion is "that there are no differences of textual interest between the impressions" (491).See: Walter E. Smith, Charles Dickens in the Original Cloth (1982), pp. 99-104; Charles Dickens Great Expectations, ed. Margaret Cardwell (Clarendon Press, 1993), pp. 491-499.The above information and some descriptive material is from a Bernard Quartich listing dated 2018.

Haarlem, Joh. Enschedé en Zoonen & J. van Walré, 1807.
4°. [4], X, [2], 27, [1 blank], 296 pp. With two engraved medallions on the first title-page.
First edition of a landmark Dutch anti-colonialist and anti-missionary treatise. This controversial and heavily criticized work marks a shift in thinking about the Western influence around the world. It is a rare work and here in excellent. Only a few copies are recorded in libraries outside The Netherlands.
At the end of November 1803, the Teyler's Religious Society in Haarlem organized a competition. A treatise was to be prepared on the question, "What service have missionaries done to the propagation of true Christianity in the past two centuries, and what fruit is there been to expected from the present active missionary societies in this regard?". On November 30, 1804, Haafner's manuscript of 195 pages arrived. This turned out to be the only entry, making it inevitable to crown him the… Read More
