Description

FIRST AND ONLY EDITION, NEVER PUBLISHED, of this extremely rare catalogue of the books destroyed when the Palais du Conseil d'Etat burned in May, 1871. 2 leaves, 71 pp. Hundreds of 19th century and antiquarian books thoroughly described (particularly strong, as one would expect, in French history and culture). ONLY 100 COPIES PRINTED, NEVER PUBLISHED. This is furthermore a presentation copy, with a SIGNED INSCRIPTION FROM PATRICE SALIN, THE MAIN AUTHOR, to art and book expert Emile-Louis Galichon (1829-1875), director of the Gazette des Beaux Arts. Printed on good wove paper. 8vo. Uncut in original wraps. Some wear to wraps. Internally clean. Very good.
