The Pickwick Papers is the first novel by Charles Dickens.
The Posthumous Papers of the Pickwick Club was Charles Dickens's first novel. He was asked to contribute to the project as an up-and-coming writer following the success of Sketches by Boz, published in 1836. Dickens increasingly took over the unsuccessful monthly publication after the original illustrator Robert Seymour had committed suicide.

The Pickwick Papers is a 1913 three-reel silent film based on the novel of the same name by Charles Dickens. The film was produced by Vitagraph Studios and features John Bunny in the title role of Samuel Pickwick. Bunny and the Vitagraph Company desired to make an authentic recreation of Dickens' novel, and filming took place in England rather than at Vitagraph's New York studio. The Pickwick Papers was highly regarded by Bunny himself and was praised by The Moving Picture World for its fidelity to Dickens' work. The film did not achieve popularity among audiences, however, who preferred Bunny's usual output of one-reel comedies. Only two reels of the film survive in the holdings of the British Film Institute.
