193324569Paris: Edition Arts et Metiers Graphiques 1933. First edition. Stiff Wraps. Original spiral binding front cover lettered in red. Very good. Unpaginated. Six leaves. 25 x 19 cm. 62 photogravure plates after Brassai. Printed by Draeger with exceptional photogravure plates this series of nocturnal Parisian views with its evocative text by Morand is something of an Art Deco classic. PHOTOBOOK I p. 134: “a ravishing book object in a purely physical sense. The printing represents arguably the most luscious gravure ever seen the blacks being so rich and deep that after handling the book one expects to find sooty deposits all over one’s fingers. The gradation of tones is wonderfully subtle describing an apparently infinite range of black and near-black tones. The layout with its characteristic full-page bleeds never more felicitously employed takes us from image to image from page to page and across night-time Paris with effortless panache. One should think of it as amongst the best produced and influential photobooks ever†HASSELBLAD. 110. PARR/BADGER. I 134. ROTH. 76. Slight crease front cover.

002510Paris: Paris-Publications This is a near fine copy of the rarest of Brassai's books which has been bound into a hardcover binding from the period in handsome red and black marbled paper-covered boards and a linen cloth spine with red leather label gilt title. The original binding of this book was a spiral plastic ring type. The spiral binding was taken off and the book with its original red-orange covers with the title printed in large white letters was bound in whole. Covers are bright and clean in very good condition small closed tear to bottom corner of back cover inside completely clean. There is no date on the colophon page inside back cover and there apparently were two editions. The first edition was published in 1930 but Brassai was reportedly unhappy with the selection of images and because he was not credited. In our copy he is credited as the photographer and so we assume this is the second edition from ca.1934. It is unpaginated. There are 40 pages with 38 black and white photographs of ladies of the night strippers models night clubs and balls like the Bal Tabarin shots of tough streetwalkers in Les Halles many shots of men and women in costume sometimes drag also a lesbian couple in a club "strictement Feminine" shots of lovers in parks on streets playful shots of men looking into a lingerie shop window with elaborately garbed mannequins at night 1 shot of Kiki in a Montparnasse night club an amazing shot in " La Cage a Femmes d'un Grand Music-Hall Parisien" which shows a cage or pit viewed from above with women on stools like lions in various states of undress and performing "acrobatic" feats. Finally tipped in at the very end on the collophon page a half-page size shot in color of a nude woman in profile we assume not by Brassai. Large 4to 11" high X 8" wide. The original book was not cut down when re-bound it is in its' intended size and because of the re-binding it has been kept in near fine condition. A beautiful copy of a true rarity. This book will be securely wrapped and packed in a sturdy box and shipped with tracking. Hard Cover. Near Fine. Paris-Publications Hardcover

193324590Paris: Edition Arts et Métiers Graphiques 1933. Former owner's innocuous book plate signature that reads "Brassai" but likely not in the photographer's hand light edge creases to the bottom corners gently handled with minor wear; a solid very good copy lacking serious defects in photo-illustrated spiral-bound wrappers. First Edition. Spiral bound quarto sixty-four gravure plates. The best-known and most iconic of the great Paris photobooks printed in a deep gravure so tactile it seems almost as if charcoal will rub off on the hands of the viewer. The cobblestone covers and endpapers are particularly evocative. Parr / Badger v1 134; Roth 76-77. Paris: Edition Arts et Métiers Graphiques unknown books
1933138421Paris: Arts et M'tiers Graphiques 1933. First Edition. First Edition. 60 full-page black and white plates. Brassai's first and most notable photobook. <br/><br/>A nocturnal exploration of Parisian culture and one of the most celebrated and influential collections of urban photography ever published. Compiled in a somewhat eery sequence of encounters set around the darkest corners of 1930s Paris. Brassai does not shy away from capturing the less-than-savory aspects of inner city life often featuring sex workers seedy back alleys and the murky nighttime waters of the Seine. <br/><br/>Very Good plus in bright wrappers softcover. Spiral bound. Moderate creasing and rubbing overall. <br/><br/>Roth 101 p. 76-77. Parr and Badger Vol. 1 p. 134. Arts et M'tiers Graphiques unknown books
