Fat Boy from The Pickwick Papers

Mr Samuel Pickwick was the main protagonist and founder of the Pickwick Club. and was usually portrayed by illustrators as a round-faced, clean-shaven, portly gentleman wearing spectacles.

The posthumous Papers of the Pickwick Club was Charles Dicken's first novel published in 1836. 

First published in 19 issues, over 20 months, the success of the Pickwick Papers popularised serialized fiction and cliffhanger endings.

These prints come from Character sketches from Charles Dickens, portrayed by Kyd in a series of watercolour sketches.
