A scarce early edition published by Langlume et Peltier. This is not the book, but 12 of the plates plus engraved title with vignette. Gumuchian 4641 has the same uncoloured version of the plates as found here. Early Edition, engraved with a small frontispiece, and several engraved plates signed by Saint-Claude, Claronne, Saint-Denis, Chareton, Sarene, Versailles, etc. Included here is the illustration of the family eating dinner in the tree-tops of le Poirier sans pareil. This pear tree could apparently accommodate up to a dozen diners. Commonly said to be burned by Allied troops in 1814, evidence from an 1822 engraving of places to visit in Paris, suggest that it survived longer. The plates are in decent condition, with a little marking only. Nice examples of children's activities. Although this is not a complete copy, the plates have been removed from WorldCat / OCLC: 460892067. .
