Charles Dickens antique print of Alfred Jingle signed by the artist Frederick Barnard and the maker J Robertson Frith.

Alfred Jingle

Strolling player and general mischief-maker in ‘The Pickwick Papers’. He is the first of Dickens’ rogues, and in the many ways is more a scamp than a villain. Nowadays he would be termed a confidence trickster or con artist. There is an intriguing artistry in the style and manner of Jingle that only deserts him when he is found incarcerated in the Fleet prison.
