Soft cover. Condición: Good. 1st Edition. A charming surviving example of the Victorian Christmas and seasonal publishing tradition associated with Charles Dickens's celebrated weekly journal All the Year Round. Issued as the 1886 "Spring Extra Number", A Bunch of Spring Flowers was produced in the familiar enlarged pamphlet for…mat intended for popular railway and parlour reading, combining illustrated advertisements with several pieces of light fiction and sentimental domestic literature. Although published more than fifteen years after Dickens's death, the periodical continued to trade prominently on his name and reputation, retaining the long-established wording "Conducted by Charles Dickens" on the wrappers and title page. The contents appear to comprise a sequence of connected stories or novellas including The Lady of Dis, Heart of Feather - Heart of Lead, One Day's Work, In the May Time, and The Orphan's Atonement. Particularly attractive here is the survival of the striking original printed wraps in red and green, together with the extensive Victorian advertisements for cocoa, patent medicines, household goods, watches, furnishings, and other commercial products, offering a vivid glimpse into late nineteenth-century popular print culture. Such ephemeral numbers were commonly discarded or later bound into collected volumes, making intact standalone copies increasingly uncommon today. The Spring Extra Number of All The Year Round entitled "A Bunch of Spring Flowers". Conducted by Charles Dickens. The interior title page reads: "A Bunch of Spring Flowers": Being The Extra Spring Number of ALL THE YEAR ROUND. Conducted by Charles Dickens. Containing the Amount of Three Ordinary Numbers. Published by Charles Dickens & Evans, London, 1886. First edition. A good copy of this periodical - scarce to find such a solo copy intact with its original covers as so many have been lost, or rebound into volumes. The yellow card covers are printed in red and green ink. They are a little soiled, and rather frayed and nibbled to edges. The interior text is clean and bright with a little wear in places - some creases to corners and a marginal loss to the top of the internal title page - the missing piece is still within the periodical and could be restored. Issue is complete. Some of the text page edges remain uncut. Text in English. (4) card wraps with advertisements + (iv) advertisements) + 60pp. Dimensions: approximately 253mm high x 167mm wide x 4mm deep. Weight: approximately 92g (unpacked).
