Sobre este artículo
Paris: Chez Marcilly, 1822 First edition. Seemingly intended as an annual, but no other issues appeared. Gold embossed gilt stiff paper wrappers. . Miniature ( " x 1"). . With eight hand-colored full-page illustrations. Some rubbing and some chipping to spine. Two small holes (seemingly made by a needle) at fore-edge, presumably for closure ties. Red armorial wax stamp to lower pastedown. A very good, bright, and clean copy. Annuals (sometimes referred to as literary annuals or keepsakes) were collections of literature and art published during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries and were intended to be given as gifts. Though annuals did not emerge in the English-speaking world until the 1820s, literary almanacs had a long history in France and Germany, where titles like the Alamanch des Muses (1765 – 1833) and the Musen-Almanach (1796 – 1800) proliferated. Annuals were very popular among women, with many publishers marketing their annuals exclusively toward female audiences: German publisher J.G. Cotta's Almanach des Dames, for example, ran from about 1800 to 1830; the Louis Janet series of annuals, Almanach dedié aux Demoiselles, ran from 1812 to 1826. Inheritors of the genre in England include Kate Greenaway, whose popular Alamack series ran from 1883 to 1897.

Sobre Michael R. Thompson, Booksellers, ABAA/ILAB
Our office is located in Los Angeles on West Third Street, between the Beverly Center and Farmer's Market. Though we gave up an open shop after more than thirty years, we welcome serious customers and dealers. We are normally open from 10 to 6 Monday through Saturday. Since some of our less expensive books are located in a temperature-controlled storage area offsite, you may want to call ahead of time to insure that the book you want to see will be available. We feature a stock strong in literature, history, Western philosophy, women's studies, education, history of science and fine printing and artists' books. We are members of the Antiquarian Booksellers Association of America and the International League of Antiquarian Booksellers. We have books from the 15th to the 20th century in all prices ranges. We do appraisals for income tax and insurance purposes. We purchase individual books and libraries. Proprietor: Carol Sandberg
