Rare book archive asks assistance: What's best old CJ dictionary?

[R K Henderson]

I'd recommend Gill. As a non-scientific "saddlebag" guide, it contains a
lot of real-world info that more than makes up for its lack of phonetics.
For an amateur, Gill showed an admirable desire to convey the depth and
breadth of Jargon.

FWIW,
