A B C Alphabet des petits possions et des gros

Author: LORRAIN, Maurice
Title: A B C Alphabet des petits possions et des gros
Publication: (Lyon): (Les editions J. Barbe, [1944]
Edition: First Edition

Description: First Edition. Staplebound. Tall quarto, unpaginated (12pp.), illustrated. A fresh, clean copy in the publisher's printed wraps. Housed in a tissue dust jacket, which appears to be contemporary, buthough we are unsure if it is original. There are neat clear tape mends applied to the inner flaps of the jacket to keep it securely on the book. A very near fine example, with a single marginal chip to one leaf, not approaching any text. A wonderfully stylized French alphabet book geared towards young children, with a number of anthropomorphized fish as the illustrations. Scarce in commerce, particularly in this condition. Produced during wartime and made from cheap materials, this is a beautifully preserved example. OCLC records just half a dozen physical holdings, mostly at major institutions, and the only on in France is at the BNF. Near fine.
