Also a loose thin promotional sheet from the publisher. This Maurois novel first appeared in 1923. David was a post-Impressionist painter who was a part of the Ecole de Paris movement whose members were mostly not French born David being an exception to this. But she did marry a fellow member of this group Jules Pascin with whom she emigrated to American for five years. In the 1920s she became an active enthusiastic book illustrator this being a fine example of her work in the medium. Ours is a beautiful copy of this edition. It looks virtually untouched with the leaves generally uncut and all the tissue guards still in perfect shape. The glassine dust jacket has a few closed tears and tiny holes which with the material doesn't take much handling to occur. The slipcase and chemise have some color fading of their blue and the slipcase has light edgewear. Its skiver title label has a tiny pinprick blemish. But are structurally sound attractive and will continue to protect the book proper. The dust jacket alone we would grade Very Good Minus the slipcase and chemise Very Good Plus. Overall we consider this package very comfortably Fine. Librairie de la Revue Française. Alexis Redier, editor. Printer: Colouma unknown
