In this episode, we get another tale, this one a sentimental affair about a convict’s return home, a cricket match (and the drunken dinner that follows) featuring the return of the Stranger in the green coat (who will finally be named!), and the Fat Boy spies on a certain Pickwickian snuggled up with someone in the Wardles’ garden. We’ll also discuss the new illustrator, Robert W. Buss, whose work was featured in only the first printings of this issue.
The third number of The Posthumous Papers of the Pickwick Club was published at the end of May 1836. With the death of Robert Seymour, a new plan for each issue was put in place: the narrative would increase from 24 pages to a new 32 pages and the illustrations would decrease from four per issue to just two. Robert W. Buss was hired as illustrator, but neither Dickens nor the publishers were pleased with his work, so in future printings they replaced Buss’ plates with new ones from their next illustrator, Phiz. We’ll learn about Phiz in No. 4’s episode.
You can see Buss’ original plates at the Victorian Web here:

Join the Rosenbach Museum and Library for a monthly journey through Charles Dickens’ The Pickwick Papers. The Posthumous Papers of the Pickwick Club was the first serialized novel written by Dickens and was published in 20 monthly parts (2-3 chapters per month) from March 1836-October 1837. Edward G. Pettit and a rotating set of Dickensian cohosts will talk about each serialized part once a month from March 2023-October 2024. You will relive Dickens’ funniest novel just as his first readers did.
The Rosenbach has in its collections the complete serial issues of The Pickwick Papers, a portion of the Pickwick manuscript, as well as many first editions, the earliest surviving literary manuscript, letters, ephemera, and a lock of Charles Dickens’ hair.
