The exhibition, “Charles Dickens at 200” on view at the Morgan through February 12, 2012, celebrates the bicentennial of the great writer’s birth in 1812 with manuscripts of his novels and stories, letters, books, photographs, original illustrations, and caricatures.

years later, football had become a deeply entrenched college sport. While professional leagues have always ruled the world of baseball, football was exclusively a collegiate affair until recent times. Small wonder that when publishers looked around for new ideas that would sell well, they quickly picked up on the College Girls theme. Dozens of sets were produced by a score of printers in the prime years from 1905 to 1910. Such postcards soon became as much a part of the college and gridiron scene as spirited cheerleaders and colorful pennants.

Burdett-Coutts to address the plight of “fallen women.” Dickens’s fascination with dramatic performance, which manifested itself in his participation in amateur theatricals and public readings, and the impact of this interest on his literary technique, is examined in the exhibition. A selection of original playbills illustrate this aspect of Dickens’s work, which encompasses his collaboration with fellow novelist Wilkie Collins. The exhibition also includes Dickens’s Christmas books. Visitors will be able to see the manuscripts of three of his five Christmas books, including A Christmas Carol (1843), The Cricket on the Hearth (1845), and The Battle of Life (1846). The Morgan owns the manuscript of A Christmas Carol, and this installation will allow visitors to see it in the context of Dickens’s other Christmas tales which have been credited by historians with significantly “redefining” the spirit and meaning of the holiday. To coincide with the exhibition, a new facsimile edition of A Christmas Carol has been published, with an introductory essay
