Henry Cockton (7 December 1807 - 26 June 1853) was an English novelist, remembered primarily for The Life and Adventures of Valentine Vox, the Ventriloquist (1839 - 40). In 1839 Henry Cockton commenced writing The Life and Adventures of Valentine Vox the Ventriloquist. Published by Robert Tyas of London, in the monthly serial format, popularised by Charles Dickens, it was an immediate success, enjoying great popularity and acclaim. Illustrations by Thomas Onwhyn were a prominent feature of this. Valentine Vox teaches himself ventriloquism after seeing a performer in a local tavern, then uses his skills to create mayhem and mischief. Fearing this will lead him into trouble, his family send him to stay with his uncle Grimwood Goodman in London. This provides unlimited opportunities to perform pranks, such as disrupting political meetings, theatrical performances, educational lectures and social events. Ref HHH7.

Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. Panorama. Cupid and Crinoline [Authors name not given but Attributed to Thomas Onwhyn] . published by Rock and Co. London. Not dated [1858] Panorama. Bound in original red boards with blue cloth spine. An Accordion folded strip, pasted joints after every second leaf. Attached to lower board of paper covered cardboard boards. Brick red coloured boards, illustrated with twelve hand coloured etched plates with text. COMPLETE. Rare panorama with typical Onwhyn humour, making fun of the contemporary fashion of large crinoline dresses. Twelve humorous scenes showing a lady in various predicaments caused by her very large crinoline dress. The verso of the front board has a engraved contemporary advert for 'W.H.J.Carter bookseller stationer', which has left a rectangle dent in the front board. Another engraved contemporary advert for the 'A Gentlemans Card Plate engraved . at Carters Stationer and Printseller, Regent Street' is printed on the verso of the first page; on the verso of the second page also has an engraved contemporary advert for the 'Theatre Royal Haymarket The Private Boxes'. These do detract from the panorama but the publisher had to make money as do newspapers who sell space for adverts today. The top right corner is missing throughout the panorama, possibly a hungry mouse. The Two sheets which had been detached have now been restored and are now professionally attached with Japon paper. The publishers, not to waste space have printed another engraved contemporary advert for 'W.H.J.Carter Carlton Library, Regent Street' printed on the verso of the last folding page. The last page folds out from the left to the right, the reverse to the norm and is sometimes missed. This is the similar as  'Mrs Caudle in Crinoline' which is also by Thomas Onwhyn. Also available for purchase from this website.A very nice copy of a scarce item. Folded size 15 x 15.5 cm [6 x 6.25 inches] Mrs Caudle was a figure of fun invented by Douglas Jerrold in 1845 that had her as a 'cantankerous, whining old busybody'. She would frequently appear as a stock figure of fun and would feature in Punch for many years, however Onwhyn ends his adaptation happily, unlike Jerrold's original on which it is based.

Hardcover. Condición: Good +. Panorama. Bound in original red boards with blue cloth spine. Inscription dated 1859 on verso of front cover. A Panorama of twelve hand coloured etched plates with text ,initialled 'TO', Thomas Onwhyn. COMPLETE. Rare panorama with typical Onwhyn humour, making fun of the contemporary fashion of large crinoline dresses. Twelve humorous scenes showing a lady in various predicaments caused by her very large crinoline dress. [A spoiler] The wife gives up her crinoline so her husband can be close to her. The characters originally come from Douglas Jerrold's Mrs Caudle Curtain Lectures. The boards are a little worn, as to be expected, rubbed with small pieces missing. I suspect this has been restored. The panorama laid onto a supporting sheets as two of sheets appear to have old 5cm marginal tears. The last two pages fold inwards. Scarce to find .

The binding is rubbed at the extremities; front joint is starting to separate but the board is holding fairly well; wear at the head of the spine; scattered foxing; early ink note on the front free endpaper incorrectly tallies the plate-count. Early owner name of Malcolm MacLaren / March 1898 on a preliminary blank, penciled underneath with a London address in perhaps a different hand. An interesting extra-illustrated edition with a mixture of issue points and states of plates. This copy is lacking plates 22, 33, 35, and 37. Present are the earlier versions of plate 10 and 11 etched by Buss. Dickens didn't care for the plates and they were redone by Browne fairly early. In addition to the plates that were done for the edition, this copy includes nearly all of the plates engraved by Onwhyn and brought out by E. Grattan in a "pirated" edition. An interesting copy of one of Dickens's most popular books.

This is the only known copy of the Willoughby edition (ca. 1849) in parts.

This bestellseing potboiler, first published by Tyas in 1840, sold some 400,000 copies in its era, but remains of note because for two reasons: 1) the central role in the narrative of ventriloquism, which makes it of interest to collectors of magic and the allied arts;and 2) the author's very direct attack, in the text and the Preface, on then-scandalous use of private lunatic asylums. PROVENANCE: From the collection of William Randolph Hearst. LAID IN LOOSE are letters of provenance from Hammer Galleries and Gimbel Brothers, together with the Hammer Galleries cataloging slip.…
