RABELAIS Francois William Siegel illus
The Works of Rabelais. Faithfully Translated from the French with Variorum Notes and Numerous Illustrations by Gustave Doré. Privately Printed with Twenty Additional New Illustrations
N.p. New York: Privately Printed N.d. ca 1930s. Octavo. Cloth boards with paper spine and cover labels; 640pp; illus. Mild toning to paper labels; front hinge thinly cracked a few pages opened roughly - about VG lacking the presumed dustwrapper. The twenty additional illustrations though never explicitly attributed and hinted at only in the front cover label are by the radical cartoonist William Siegel who was a frequent contributor to New Masses and other CP-affiliated publications. There is nothing particularly racy about either the translation or the illustrations so it's unclear why the anonymous publisher took such pains to issue the work anonymously - unless it was to tempt the buyer with an intentionally deceptive appearance of smut. The edition is either scarce or more likely other cataloguers simply have neglected to attribute the illustrations to Siegel. Privately Printed unknown books
