Austen began it in August 1796, when she was the same age as her heroine, and finished in August 1797. Entitled "First Impressions", it was offered by her father to Thomas Cadell on 1 November 1797 as a novel in three volumes "about the length of Miss Burney's Evelina". Cadell declined without asking to see the manuscript. Austen revised it in 1809-10 after the success of Sense and Sensibility, by which time the first choice of title had been used elsewhere. It remains the most popular of her novels.

London: Richard Bentley, 1839. Dark brown-black half-leather with blue-green boards.

Poor. 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall.

London: George Allen, 1894. Hardcover. Good. Hugh Thomson. First edition of the famed 'Peacock Edition' of Austen's novel. Features numerous b/w illustrations, decorated initials and devices by Hugh Thomson, who also designed the elaborate and iconic Peacock on Sundial cover done in gilt on green cloth. The scheme for this edition follows that of Macmillan's 'Cranford series', of which Thomson designed the inaugural volume in 1891. The appearance of these deluxe volumes, frequently at christmas, became minor publishing events and none was to prove as popular and enduring as the Peacock edition. Complete with a preface by George Saintsbury. All edges gilt. Tissue guarded frontispiece. Small 8vo. (185x140mm) [xxvii] 476pp. Repairs/discreet rebacking to top and tail of spine allowing binding to have strengthened, thus volume is tight and square. Instance of light spotting to title page/tissue guard. Mild offsetting/toning due to tissue guard. Very occasional light marking within but overall a particularly clean and prim example. Good/very good.

London: Richard Bentley,, 1836. A novel. Duodecimo (163 x 102 mm). Contemporary green quarter calf by W. Courtney, spine gilt to compartments with twin red morocco labels, marbled sides and endpapers. Engraved vignette title and frontispiece by William Greatbach after Ferdinand Pickering. Contemporary bookplate of Miss. J. Greene of Clonliffe. Half-title present. Very light wear to extremities, a couple of white marks to front cover. A very good copy. Early Bentley edition. In 1832-3 Richard Bentley bought the copyright to all Austen's novels, which had not been reissued since 1818, to include them in his Standard Novels series. The Bentley illustrations, by the obscure Ferdinand Pickering, played an integral part in the reception of Austen's novels; according to one Austen scholar, they "promoted a sense that her novels were best understood as familial, female focused, and sensational. For decades, these illustrations would have served to steer readers away from the conclusion that Austen's fiction ought to be understood as social, comic, or didactic" (Davoney Looser, The Making of Jane Austen, 2017, p. 20). Bentley frequently reprinted the novels, but these later printings are uncommon, and are especially so in a contemporary binding.

London : George Allen , 1894 A fair to good copy of the 1st publication of the 'Peacock Edition' of Pride and Prejudice with illustrations by Hugh Thomson. In the original green decorative cloth binding with spectacular gilt peacock design to front board and gilt designs to spine. Aeg. With numerous black and white illustrations by Thomson. The binding is bright and clean. The front board has wear to the corners with slight cloth loss and a small indentation at the side edge also with slight cloth loss. The spine is cocked to the front and is slightly dulled with some pulling and slight fraying at the bottom. The back board has some corner wear and slightly faded areas. The original black endpapers are present with early splitting at the front joint and more obvious splitting at the rear joint where there has been repair. The book is sound but shaken - with webbing visible at p 32/3 and 352. Contents are complete and in good clean condition. There is a light stain to the side edge of the fep which persists to the dedication page, and occasional spotting primarily to margins. There is some marking at pp 18/19. There is what looks like an old repair to the corners of pp 175/6 and 177/8 where a section was probably torn and reattached - there is slight loss of text underneath the adhesive that has been used. There are a couple of very small edge tears at the bottom margin.

London : Richard Bentley, 1856 A very good copy of the 1856 reprint of the Richard Bentley edition of Pride and Prejudice. In probably contemporary half leather binding with silk boards, which has been rebacked more recently to provide a new spine. The spine has gilt-lined raised bands and title and author labels. The binding is in very good condition, being clean and sound, with some light bubbling and marking to the boards and some wear to the leather corners. Contents: initial blank with signature; half title; frontispiece with tissue guard; vignette title; letterpress title dated 1856; text 340pp. In very good condition, with light toning to edges - particularly the upper edge. Some corners with light folds. Small fray to upper corner tip to p81 and light marks to endpapers. A very nice copy.

London : Richard Bentley A good to very good copy of an early Richard Bentley edition of Pride and Prejudice newly rebound in half leather with marbled boards. The binding, with gilt-lined raised bands to spine, is in fine condition. Page edges marbled. New endpapers. This copy lacks a letterpress title page or series title page; having only a black and white frontispiece and vignette title page dated 1833. The vignette title page was re-used in later editions during the 1830's-50's, retaining its 1833 date. This means that this book was published before 1860, but it is not possible to pin the date down further. The contents are in very good clean condition. The frontispiece and vignette title are a little spotty (as usual) and there is a small stain to the bottom outer corners of both. Text pages have the occasional light spot - most obvious in the bottom margins of pp circa p 244.

Indeed the spine is identical in colouration to the front board. A much nicer copy than normally seen of this important edition. Scans invited to appreciate the quality of this book

London:: J.M. Dent ,, 1907.. First Edition thus. Hardcover. Twelvemo, about 7.75 inches (19.5 cm) tall, in the publisher's gilt decorated vellum. 336 pages illustrated by 24 color plates by Charles Brock. A lovely volume that was part of a six volume set. Brock had illustrated Austen some years before with other illustrators including his brother, but only in uncolored drawings. The illustrated endpapers are moderately toned; the text to a lesser extent but still obvious. The vellum, as is often the case in a dry climate, has shrunk causing the covers to bow and leaving the hinges a little tight. It should resolve itself in higher humidity. Otherwise clean and unmarked with the vellum slightly yellowed.
