A pair of later printings published by Chapman and Hall in 1871. Both have had the original green cloth relaid. Edges rubbed, browning etc. Both bear the ownership inscription of Sir David Attenborough (D F Attenborough/Dec 1947 in Barnaby Rudge and D F Attenborough Jan 1947 in The Old Curiosity Shop). Both now housed in a custom made slipcase. Two books by the 41st ‘Greatest Briton’, owned by the ‘63rd’. A lovely association.
