Balzac en pantoufles. Avant-propos de J. Jacques Brousson. Bois gravés de Maximilien VOX.
-
First edition. Numbered in Roman Numerals XXVIII. Meaning that this is one of the thirty copies reserved for collaborators. Signed and numbered to the colophon. (Bizarrely, the signature bears a strong similarilty to Gozlan's, even though he died 60 years before this edition was published. We assume a member of the publisher's staff has signed the limitation). 14 full page colour (pochoir) illustrations (with colouring by Jean Saudé) and one full page black and white. Less a biography, and more a series of vivid anecdotes about Balzac, portraying him as energetic, eccentric, always writing, forever evading creditors, and constantly mixing grand ambitions with daily chaos. Original glassine cover with a few nicks and slightly darkened. Substantially sound. The pink soft cover is in good condition, with just a touch of edgewear to the head and tail of the spine. Internally clean and tidy throughout. There is a slight lean to the book. There are vignettes, chapter headings, cul-de-lampes and engraved initials by Vox throughout. A lovely book. The book is printed on vélin á la forme Montgolfier d'Annonay paper. 242 pages. 25cm x 16.5cm. Conforms to WorldCat / OCLC: 12304514. The total limitation of the publication was 605 copies in various states. .
