About This Item
Paris: Mourlot Freres, 1947. First Edition. Hardcover. Near Fine. Copy 9 of 300 examples, signed by Eluard and the artist, Engel-Pak, slipcased with a second copy, an out-of-series proof, unsigned, but with an original drawing for the title drawn by Engel-Pak on thin paper and initialled (design not used), hand-lettered by Eluard, and with three additional sheets hand-lettered by Eluard for the title, the colophon, and a plate list (this last also unused). Housed in two chemises within a vellum-backed slipcase. 12 3/4 x 9 1/4 inches (32.5 x 23.5 cm); 16 sheets printed in color lithography; plus the additional material noted above in the second copy, which is printed on paper 1 cm taller than the published work. This is likely a participant's copy, possibly Eluard's own.
