Sobre este artículo
[New York]: The Heritage Club, 1939. Hardcover. Near Fine. Translated from the French by Jacques Le Clercq. With illustrations by Boris Artzybasheff. Extra illustrated with color plates by Ralph Barton taken from a limited edition of *Droll Stories* published by Boni & Liveright in 1928. Bound by Sangorski and Sutcliffe in green morocco over boards, with pictorial designs stamped in color on both boards and the spine, inside gilt tooling, all edges gilt. Bookplate of Saul Shapiro on the first front fly leaf. Very slight sunning to the spine, a fine copy in a maroon goatskin wrapper with interior silk pastdowns and yapp edges and the title lettered in gold on the spine; housed in a slipcase in quarter maroon goatskin and cloth. There is a light corner stain on the silk pastedowns on the inside of the maroon goatskin wrapper (not affecting the book), thus near fine overall. A rare edition with extra illustrations by Ralph Barton, in an exceptional Sangorski and Sutcliffe binding.
