The Works of Charles Dickens Household Edition: Christmas Books (1878)



The Works of Charles Dickens Household Edition: Christmas Books (1878)
London: Chapman and Hall 
Illustrator: Fred Barnard

We're back to some early illustrations of "A Christmas Carol" with this set by Fred Barnard from the 1878 "household Edition" of Christmas Books by Charles Dickens.

There are only a few, but they're good...




I've seen this one reproduced quite often.

Doesn't the Beadle on the left look like Charles Laughton as Inspector Javert?







Always good to see different scenes and different interpretations!
