(8), XXXVI, 526 pp. (4), XXXIV, 383 (but: 381) pp. (14), 218 (but: 216), 150, (34) pp. With 2 engr. titles, 1 engr. portrait, 1 engr. frontispiece, 3 engr. title vignettes, 13 engr. headpieces, 12 engr. tailpieces, 1 folding engr. map, and 16 (3 folding) engr. plates. Contemp. calf with double giltstamped label to spine, attractively gilt spine, and triple gilt cover fillets. Leading edges gilt; all egdes gilt. Second edition of the first critical Rabelais edition by Jacques Le Duchat; the first to contain these illustrations. The charming vignettes in Pompeian style are mostly by B. Picart; the second portrait of the poet in vol. II is framed by rich allegorical decorations. The three folding plates in vol. I show views of Rabelais' birth house. - Beautiful bindings with professionally restored spine-ends. Slight tear to pp. XIII-XVI in vol. I; altogether a very clean, virtually unbrowned copy. Engraved bookplate by the French antiquary, collector, and occasional poet Jules Couderc, whose collection was sold by Drouot in Paris in 1914, on front pastedown. - Sander 1631. Cohen/Ricci 840.
