Vanity Fair

William Makepeace Thackeray · Bradbury & Evans · 1847-1848

The monthly parts in wrappers are the true first appearance; the 1848 bound volume is the first book edition. The three textual/illustration points (rustic-type heading page 1, the present-then-suppressed Steyne woodcut page 336, and 'Mr. Pitt' page 453) belong to the bound first edition, not the parts.
