Description: Otley: Printed by William Walker, (n. d.). Ca early 1840s. Cf. Engel 229 & Miller, p. 243 for a similar work, "Pickwick Treasury of Wit, or, Joe Miller's Jest Book" [1845]. Original publisher's printed yellow wrappers. 12 pp. Woodcut vignette to front wrapper, as well as typographical border/decorations. 12mo. 7-1/4" x 4-3/8". Bit of wear & soiling to wrappers. Very Good. "The Pickwick Treasury of Wit" is listed by Miller at 320 pp; we speculate this item prefatory to the bound volume. Rare.
