Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book takes the reader on a rollicking journey into the lives of the Browns, a family of Victorian suburbanites, during the Christmas season. The author deftly blends humor and satire to paint a vivid picture of their daily routines, social interactions, and the complexities of the…ir relationships. Set amidst a backdrop of 19th-century London, the narrative captures the essence of a bustling city undergoing rapid social change. The story centers on John Brown, Esq., a rising figure in Mizzlington's suburban aristocracy, and his family, including his wife, daughters, and sons. Through their interactions with neighbors, servants, and a cast of colorful characters, the author explores themes of class, ambition, and the search for happiness in a world governed by societal conventions. The book delves into the intricacies of Victorian social life, from the rigid rules of etiquette to the pursuit of wealth and status. Through humorous anecdotes and insightful observations, the author offers a commentary on the human condition and the often-contradictory nature of Victorian society. The book's enduring appeal lies in its sharp wit and its ability to capture the nuances of human behavior in a way that resonates with readers even today. This book offers a charming glimpse into a bygone era, while reminding us of the timeless truths that underpin human experience. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.

FIRST EDITION, in two parts. Oblong 8vo. Two parts, both with eight uncoloured lithographs; sl. spotted. Loose in orig. pale orange pictorial printed paper wrappers; sl. dusted & with some wear to spine, otherwise a nice set of a very rare work. OCLC records two copies in the UK, at the BL and the V&A (Part I only) and three cop…ies in North America, at Connecticut, Georgetown and San Francisco Public library (Part I only). The subject matter concerns the rapacious accumulation of wealth by any means, followed by the squandering of that wealth with selfish abandon. This may have been too close to mid-Victorian sensibilities, which did not endear the work to buyers, resulting in its scarcity today. There is some doubt over the date of the work. Although the first notice of it appears in January 1851, a miniature bank note in the top left of the upper wrapper has the date 1848 crossed through, leading to confusion about the gestation of the publication. There was a very long review of the work in the Morning Advertiser of Saturday 18 January 1851, indeed so long and detailed that it may have been written by Leighton as a puff, but more probably by The Advertiser's James Grant, a theologian of extreme Calvinist views who would have strongly approved of the publication. Regardless of the writer's identity, the review is fairly emphatic as to the work's merit: 'The two fasciculi of etchings [actually lithographs], which form the subject of this notice, deserve more than a passing glance. Each. plate has its moral lesson each presents a study, and, under the guise of a refined species of caricature, gives, sadly and solemnly, a warning against the indulgence of selfishness, either in hoarding or prodigalityfor here, also, the extremes meet'. Twyman goes on to describe every illustration concluding that 'Luke Limner's inscriptions on each plate, as well as his pencillings are such as evince observation, tact, judgment, good intention, and the best application of satire.' See Michael Twyman Early Lithographic Books, Private Libraries Association 1990. John Leighton, 1822-1912, was an artist and binder best known for his book illustrations and cover designs. His illustrations, often in an early comic strip layout with multiple images accompanied by captions, are a miracle of detail, carefully and neatly crafted. 'Shortly after the first edition of Lear's Book of Nonsense was published, John Leighton, using his pseudonym Luke Limner Esq., produced at least four small landscape-format picture books, three of which were published in London by David Bogue. The four are: The Ancient Story of the Old Dame and Her Pig; Comic Art-manufactures; London Out of Town, or the adventures of the Browns at the sea side; and The Rejected Contributions to the Great Exhibition. Copies of the second and last of these little books are bound up together in the Victoria & Albert Muséum Library and have the following manuscript inscription: '2 Brochures published in the dark ages of art about 1848 & 51 / Plates very much injured a few copies printed off prior to destroying them'. Michael Twyman notes that Leighton produced four early works and seemingly the plates were damaged for some or all of these through bad storage and so may account for the work's scarcity. Maybe the work only had a transient interest to contemporary buyers for on the 17th December 1851 Hodgson's held an auction of various stock, chiefly belonging to the publisher Bogue which shows he still had 820 copies on hand, probably still in sheets. That no copy with an overprint has been recorded may indicate they failed to find a buyer and were quite probably disposed of.
