Louis ARAGON
Lettre autographe signée
Grandcamp-les-Bains Grandcamp-Maisy 1914. Fine. Grandcamp-les-Bains Grandcamp-Maisy s. d. ca 1914-1920 13.50 x 21 cm une page sur un feuillet remplié Autograph letter signed addressed to a correspondent whom we have not been able to identify. Written from the Grand Hôtel de Grandcamp-les-Bains Calvados in blue ink on a folded sheet of white paper. A transverse fold inherent to the posting of the letter and four small perforations affecting the text but not impeding its reading. The mention of Grandcamp-les-Bains - where Aragon seems to have been only once during the summer of his seventeenth year - and the signature - of an early form - lead us to think that the letter could have been written in the summer of 1914. Philippe Forest in his biography of Aragon confirms that it was indeed at Grandcamp-les-Bains where his family had rented fifty rooms in a large seaside hotel to accommodate family and friends that the future poet learned the news of mobilization. The handwriting less rounded than on manuscripts prior to the 1920s however seems to us later and we are therefore not in a position to confirm the date of 1914. unknown

Nicolas BOINDIN
Lettres historiques sur tous les spectacles de Paris
à Paris: Chez Pierre Prault 1719. Fine. Chez Pierre Prault à Paris 1719 9 x 16.50 cm relié First edition. Contemporary full brown calf binding. Decorated spine with raised bands. Tan morocco title label. Tear with holes at head. 2 holes along the upper joint at tail. Rubbed and scuffed throughout. Browning framing the first 3 leaves including the title page. According to the collation the second part lacks a half-title or title for the second and third letters. However we believe that the same title was used for these different parts and that it was placed only at the head of the first letter of the second part. The collections sold did not always contain all the parts with different pagination found in this copy. For example the copy in the Bibliothèque nationale de France does not have these 2 parts second letter and third letter of the second part; it contains only the last two letters attached to the first two without the second part. First letter on the Comédie française. Second letter on the opera. Second part on the Comédie italienne three letters. Two final letters on the fairs of S. Germain and S. Laurent. The author presents the contemporary situation of spectacles in Paris by examining the Comédie française the opera for which the author lists recent performances musicians and composers the Comédie italienne and the spectacles of the fairs.

Ernest LAURENT - (Leon DIERX)
"Soir d'octobre"" - Lithographie originale sur Chine - L'Estampe Moderne
Paris: Imprimerie Champenoispour CH. MassonH. Piazza 1898. Fine. Imprimerie Champenois pour CH. Masson H. Piazza Paris Mars 1898 23.50 x 34.50 cm une feuille Rare original lithograph executed by Ernest Laurent for L'Estampe Moderne series number 11 published in March 1898. One of 50 deluxe proofs printed on China paper with large margins artist's signature in the plate publisher's blind stamp representing a child's profile in the lower margin mounted on a sheet of laid paper with the numbered luxury edition stamp on the verso pale marginal foxing. Lithograph inspired by a poem by Léon Dierx. Magnificent French monthly publication issued between May 1897 and April 1899 L'Estampe moderne consisted of original chromolithographs which unlike other periodicals such as Les Maîtres de l'Affiche and as stipulated on the tissue guards were created specially by each artist for the periodical. Thus 100 prints appeared in total covering the major artistic movements of the late 19th century: Symbolism Art Nouveau Pre-Raphaelites Orientalists and Belle Epoque. Each issue of four prints was printed in 2000 copies sold for 3.50F and 100 on Japan paper offered at 10F. Henri Piazza also planned a confidential deluxe printing: 50 copies on Japan paper with large margins and 50 in black on China paper at the considerable price of 30F. This print of handsome format is superbly printed on one of the most prestigious papers: China. ""Despite all its qualities China paper too insubstantial owes its reputation not to its own beauty but to its particular affinities with printing ink. Its texture both smooth and soft is more apt than any other to receive a beautiful impression. This property makes China paper sought after for printing engravings."" Anatole France. French collectors' interest in artistic posters intensified at the beginning of the 1890s. Octave Uzanne to characterize this fever invented the term ""affichomanie."" The poster originally popular and pasted on the streets of the capital then became an art object and its ephemeral medium became precious and destined for preservation. Piazza decided to remove the poster from its advertising purpose and elevate it to the rank of a complete work of art on the same level as the deluxe illustrated book. He thus composed a prestigious collection of entirely original works by the most prominent European artists of the moment: Georges de Feure Eugène Grasset Henri Detouche Emile Berchmans Louis Rhead Gaston de Latenay Lucien Lévy-Dhurmer Gustave-Max Stevens Charles Doudelet Hans Christiansen Henri Fantin-Latour Steinlen Ibels Engels Willette Henri Meunier Evenepoël Bellery-Desfontaines Charles Léandre etc. Handsome copy in the Symbolist style.

Jean-Paul BIGNON - Antoine Rene de Voyer d' ARGENSON
Les aventures d'Abdalla ou son voyage a l'isle de Borico. Traduction de l'Arabe
A La Haye The Hague & A Paris: Chez J. G. B. Musier 1773. Fine. Chez J. G. B. Musier A La Haye The Hague & A Paris 1773 9.50 x 17 cm 2 volumes reliés Edition with some parts in first edition rare. The first volume written by Bignon appeared from 1712 to 1714 under the name of the announced prefacer and translator: Sandisson; the second volume consisting of a sequel and conclusion to the stories of Abdalla is by M. de Paulmy; certain biographers give Louis Daniel Colson as author orientalist and one of the authors of the History of China. First illustrated and collected edition with 6 figures and 2 title vignettes; the vignettes are signed Eisen and engraved by Legrand the figures are before letters and are undoubtedly by the same. The work is listed by Cohen Livres à gravures du XVIIIe under Sandisson. Contemporary marbled full brown calf bindings. Decorated smooth spines. Red morocco title and volume labels. Restorations to headcaps and corners gilt retouched. Worming on the upper board of volume II. Scattered foxing. Brown stain in upper margin on the first 50 leaves. Brown stain in margin on 3 leaves in volume II. Overall good copy. Witty and parodic oriental novel. It recounts the journey and adventures of a pious Muslim Abdalla sent by his master the sultan of the Indies in search of water that provides eternal youth. This narrative is also a documentary on the Orient in which the abbé implements the knowledge that Western travelers brought back from their various journeys to India and Indonesia it is also the vision that the Western clergy had of Muslims and the Orient. It offers a collection of marvelous tales that borrow their elements from both East and West. Like the Thousand and One Nights it is filled with multiple stories and tales mixing genies and magic. The novel published after Galland's translation of the Thousand and One Nights would enjoy great success. Chez J. G. B. Musier unknown

Piazza Paris Mai 1898 21 x 34 cm une feuille Rare original lithograph executed by Gaston Bussière for L'Estampe Moderne series number 13 published in May 1898. One of 50 deluxe proofs printed on China paper with wide margins artist's signature in the plate publisher's dry stamp representing a child's profile in the lower margin mounted on a sheet of laid paper with the numbered stamp of the deluxe printing on the verso pale marginal foxing. Lithograph inspired by some verses entitled La Valkyrie extracted from L'Anneau du Nibelung by Richard Wagner translated by A. Ernst. Magnificent French monthly publication edited between May 1897 and April 1899 L'Estampe moderne consists of original chromolithographs which unlike other magazines such as Les Maîtres de l'Affiche and as stipulated on the tissue guards were created specially by each artist for the magazine. Thus 100 prints appeared in total covering the major artistic movements of the late 19th century: Symbolism Art Nouveau Pre-Raphaelites Orientalists and Belle Epoque. Each delivery of four prints was issued in 2000 copies sold for 3.50F and 100 on Japan paper offered at 10F. Henri Piazza also planned a confidential deluxe printing: 50 copies on Japan paper with wide margins and 50 in black on China paper at the considerable price of 30F. This print of handsome format is superbly printed on one of the most prestigious papers: China paper. ""Despite all its qualities China paper too insubstantial owes its reputation not to its own beauty but to its particular affinities with printing ink. Its texture smooth and soft at the same time is more apt than any other to receive a fine printing. This property makes China paper sought after for printing engravings."" Anatole France. The interest of French collectors in artistic posters amplified at the beginning of the 1890s. Octave Uzanne to describe this fever invented the term ""affichomanie."" The poster originally popular and posted in the streets of the capital then became an art object and its ephemeral medium became precious and destined for preservation. Piazza decided to remove the poster from its advertising vocation and elevate it to the rank of a complete work of art on the same level as the deluxe illustrated book. He thus composed a prestigious collection of entirely original works by the most prominent European artists of the moment: Georges de Feure Eugène Grasset Henri Detouche Emile Berchmans Louis Rhead Gaston de Latenay Lucien Lévy-Dhurmer Gustave-Max Stevens Charles Doudelet Hans Christiansen Henri Fantin-Latour Steinlen Ibels Engels Willette Henri Meunier Evenepoël Bellery-Desfontaines Charles Léandre etc. Handsome copy in the Art Nouveau style.

Contemporary full blonde marbled and glazed calf binding. Decorated spine with raised bands. Red morocco title-label. Traces of rubbing. 2 corners slightly bumped. A strip of discoloration at the top of the upper cover. Title page of the second part shorter at lower margin. Leaves 197 to 203 of the last part are shorter at upper margin. Good copy. 19th-century armorial bookplate of the Bauffremont family illustrious family of feudal nobility originally from Lorraine with its two mottos: Dieu ayde au premier chretien and Plus de deuil que de joye. In the preface the translator apologizes for her poor knowledge of the English language a dictionary and a grammar having little helped her understand difficult passages so she freely adapted many passages the novel having become a hybrid composed by two authors Fielding and Riccoboni. One will therefore not find the humor and satire so present in Fielding. Amelia is the last of the 4 novels written by Fielding. It tells the story of Amelia and Captain William Booth after their marriage. Brocas et Humblot hardcover

Lettre autographe signée adressée à André Dignimont
Paris 1951. Fine. Paris 3 novembre 1951 21 x 27.10 cm 2 pages sur un feuillet Autograph letter signed by Jules Romains to André Dignimont two pages penned in black ink on a sheet of his personal letterhead. Folding marks from mailing. An engaging letter in which Jules Romains corresponds with the painter Dignimont about the forthcoming illustrated edition of his sweeping novel cycle Hommes de bonne volonté: ""J'ai beaucoup pensé cette fois-ci encore aux belles compositions que vous nous avez montrées samedi. Je continue à trouver tout cela très important."" Romains' remarks are revealing as they highlight the divergence between how he envisioned his characters and how his friend interpreted them: ""Est-ce que nos deux jeunes gens ne font pas encore un peu trop rupin. . Je verrais de Marquis de St Papoul avec un visage plus maigre et plus allongé un peu donquichottesque."" He concludes with an apology for his demands: ""Hélas ! Je suis embêtant. Mais j'aime tellement vos compositions que je me permets d'y rêver comme si je les avais faites moi-même."" The illustrated edition would be published in 1954 by Flammarion marking the sole collaboration between the Académie Française member and the Montmartre painter. unknown
