Wilde Oscar

2018 · ref. ABE-1536492571049 — Editions des Saints Pères PARIS 2018 How would you feel as you look at the manuscript of one of the great works of literature The Picture Of Dorian Gray enthralls the reader and the actual manuscript of it is STUNNING. This gorgeous facsimile uses today's matchless ability to capture every mark the author made as it evolved. It is frankly deeply moving to hold this work in the hand. It is deservedly a substantial production and it is so beautifully produced it made this bookseller gasp. Special paper special care; and here is the nearest we shall ever get to handling an artistic priceless treasure. Only 1800 copies were issued. Today's digital fidelity captures every mark every alteration; here is an overwhelming work for any collector of Wilde. It is a truly sumptuous oversize production reproduced on Fedrigoni Avorio paper. This is almost overwhelmingly affecting. It is a large heavy book gorgeously produced and it is in a superb slipcase. It is fairly heavy and substantial in every sense and I commend it to anyone seriously interested in this extraordinary and prescient work. It may need extra postage depending on destination. Slipcased issued without a jacket NEW AND UNREAD. Limited Edition. Hardcover. New. Editions des Saints Pères PARIS hardcover
