Philadelphia: Joseph A. Speel, 96 Cherry Street; 1848
Cover title: Sergeant Bell's raree show.
"Having found Sergeant Bell, the raree-show man, to be an amusing and instructive companion, we cannot refrain from introducing him to our young friends ... Should he prove as acceptable a companion to the rising generation as he has been to ourselves, it is probable that, in the course of next summer, some additional account will be given of his wanderings."--Address of the publisher, p. 5. Includes accounts of the London Fire, the conquests of Napoleon I, and a description of the Manchester and Liverpool Railroad.
By "Old Humphrey" (i.e., George Mogridge).
