1925007886Paris: Draeger Frères 1925. First Edition. Flexboard Portfolio. Flexboard is semi-stiff card. Very Good Plus. Utterly charming pochoir plates explicating the printing process as practiced by Draeger which produced the most opulent and beautiful trade catalogues and other publications at the time and was unquestionably a premier if not the premier commercial printer in France and worldwide. Signed in ink by a Draeger and by Ruhlmann -- whoever Ruhlmann was. Folio 38 by 31.5 cm. Unpaginated text pages six in all which is entirely in Cocteau's verse with following color plates numbered 1 to 11. We should note that the coloring is somewhat modest in scale amounting to three colors and some limited shading of these colors. Yet the color effectively accentuates and enlivens Martin's humorous illustrations which also have the simplicity and gentle caricature one associates with cartoons. Paper pastedown on cover with a few small tears and chips. Light soiling of the portfolio cover and in plate margins -- a good amount can be diminished with an eraser if an effort is made. Occasional light foxing. Draeger Frères unknown

19374425n.p. n.d. 1937 1937. A collection of typescripts of thirteen short stories by Lise Deharme with five signed drawings by Jean Cocteau. Some of the stories are drafts with manuscript or typed amendments and some in fair copy. Each story with its illustration is loosely inserted into a card folder. Also present is the original pink file which contained the stories and drawings. On the cover of this is inscribed in De harme's hand: "Lise Deharme 146 rue de Grenelle Paris VII. Quleque dessins de Cocteau". All housed in a custom made box with paper label to spine. Given their brevity and simplicity their subject matter and the nature of the drawings these stories were clearly intended for young children - she had two of her own Tristan and Hyacinthe. We have found no evidence of these stories and drawings being published. None of them is dated but we would tentatively suggest a date in the late 1930s or early 1940s. Deharme and Cocteau were corresponding regularly at this time and Deharme was working on a book of children's poems with photographs by Claude Cahun - published in 1937 as Le Coeur de Pic. Clearly Deharme was planning another book for children this time of stories and with drawings by another leading figure of the surrealist movement Jean Cocteau. � Lise Deharme 1898-1980 has tended to be written about as little more than a muse to the great surrealists Breton Cocteau Dali and Ernst. It is true that a chance meeting with André Breton in 1924 first drew her into the circle of the surrealists but by 1933 she was running the magazine Phare de Neuilly which brought together surrealist poems and short stories and political commentary. As well as editing the work of others Deharme wrote widely herself and collaborated extensively with other surrealists. Mention is made in the literature of her work with the artists Cahun and Leonor Fini but we have found no reference to a collaboration with Cocteau. Which makes this collection of unknown and unpublished illustrated stories especially important and exciting. 1. Muscade. La Petite Fille aux dix doigts. Single leaf with title in manuscript three typed leaves recto only and then a further two leaves with the story retyped leaves 270x210mm.
