Charles Lamb, in pipefuls / selected and arranged by Walter Lewin.

Charles Lamb, Walter Lewin, Cope's (Firm) · 1890 · Liverpool : At the office of "Cope's Tobacco Plant", 1890. · 10 pictures

An 1890 anthology of Charles Lamb extracts on smoking, selected by Walter Lewin and issued in Liverpool by the cigarette firm Cope's Tobacco Plant as a cheap threepenny giveaway for its customers. Loose pen-and-ink cartoons signed H. Taylor show pipe-smoking soldiers, back views of stout men and a figure bursting through a lettered door, alongside a gold-and-black cover silhouette of a smoker — usable as spot figures, hand-lettered signage and cover borders.
