1934réf. 55114Paris-Publications 1934. Softcover. Previous owner’s signature inside front cover. As is nearly always the case with this book the plastic or Bakelite rings that once held the book together are lacking having apparently broken they must have been quite fragile and so the covers and the pages are entirely disbound. However this copy differs from most others in being more complete: it has 2 pages of text and 46 pages of images. Most copies have either 38 or 44 pages of images. This is said to be the result of censorship; since the pages are unnumbered and there is no list of the images the removal of one or more leaves would not be noticeable. Or it may be the result of there not having been an equal number of good copies of each leaf when the book was assembled. In any case this is except for the binding rings the most complete and probably earliest state of this scarce volume. Some remnants of celotape on the covers probably from an attempt to compensate for the missing binding rings. Credit to Brassia inside back cover and price 40 francs on back cover. . 48p.

réf. 002510Paris: Paris-Publications This is a near fine copy of the rarest of Brassai's books which has been bound into a hardcover binding from the period in handsome red and black marbled paper-covered boards and a linen cloth spine with red leather label gilt title. The original binding of this book was a spiral plastic ring type. The spiral binding was taken off and the book with its original red-orange covers with the title printed in large white letters was bound in whole. Covers are bright and clean in very good condition small closed tear to bottom corner of back cover inside completely clean. There is no date on the colophon page inside back cover and there apparently were two editions. The first edition was published in 1930 but Brassai was reportedly unhappy with the selection of images and because he was not credited. In our copy he is credited as the photographer and so we assume this is the second edition from ca.1934. It is unpaginated. There are 40 pages with 38 black and white photographs of ladies of the night strippers models night clubs and balls like the Bal Tabarin shots of tough streetwalkers in Les Halles many shots of men and women in costume sometimes drag also a lesbian couple in a club "strictement Feminine" shots of lovers in parks on streets playful shots of men looking into a lingerie shop window with elaborately garbed mannequins at night 1 shot of Kiki in a Montparnasse night club an amazing shot in " La Cage a Femmes d'un Grand Music-Hall Parisien" which shows a cage or pit viewed from above with women on stools like lions in various states of undress and performing "acrobatic" feats. Finally tipped in at the very end on the collophon page a half-page size shot in color of a nude woman in profile we assume not by Brassai. Large 4to 11" high X 8" wide. The original book was not cut down when re-bound it is in its' intended size and because of the re-binding it has been kept in near fine condition. A beautiful copy of a true rarity. This book will be securely wrapped and packed in a sturdy box and shipped with tracking. Hard Cover. Near Fine. Paris-Publications Hardcover
