Shadows. Twenty-five Amusing Engravings. By C. H. Bennett. Ornamental Wrapper, 2s. 6d.; coloured, 4s. 6d.

"Where's Shadow? Here, Sir. Shadow!"—Shakspeare.

"The notion that has seized Mr. Bennett's fancy is an odd one, and he has worked it out with great humour. A comic figure makes a shadow really more comic than itself, and it excites an amount of agreeable curiosity and gratification on seeing the one figure, to imagine how the artist will contrive to make it reflect another."—Morning Chronicle.

"This will be a popular book. Mr. Bennett's first venture, the grotesquely-treated "Shadows," was a decided hit, and he seems to have the knack of combining comicality and fancy in such proportions as shall be appetizing and digestible for the public."—Spectator.
