Notes

The Riley catalogue uses the title Little Nell, or the Old Curiosity Shop.

The slide titles here are from the Ivens catalogue; those listed in the Newton catalogue are longer and more detailed, though they appear to describe the same subjects. This might indicate two separate sets, or a reissue of the set after Newton took over the business of York & Son.
