45202Paris Mercure de France 1940-1941 2 volumes in-8, le second un peu plus grand, reliures articules en pollopas, bordeaux pour le premier et vert bouteille pour le second, plats biseauts, premiers plats orns d'une incrustation d'une plaque en acier poli portant le titre de l'ouvrage; nom de l'auteur et titre de l'ouvrage gravs sur une plaque de mme acier poli incruste sur les dos; doublures et gardes de soie colore dans des tons vifs, ttes dores, non rogns, couvertures imprimes (Reliure Jotau, brevet S.G.D.G.).Trs rares spcimens de ces reliures qui furent inventes et ralises entre les annes 1933 et 1955 par Joseph Taupin, sous le pseudonyme de Jotau. Les plats et les dos sont entirement mouls en pollopas (matire plastique proche de la galalithe mise au point par Kuhlmann), et s'articulent autour de deux charnires mcaniques de type piano. Les seconds plats portent ct de la signature Reliure Jotau, la mention brevet S.G.D.G. qui laisse croire que le procd fit l'objet d'un brevet dpos, ce qui est faux. Ce type de reliure fut abandonn, en raison du cot de fabrication et de la fragilit de la matire utilise particulirement cassante. Nos reliures, parfaitement conserves, sont un extraordinaire tmoin d'une recherche trs avant-gardiste pour l'poque, et dont la conception peut tre compare certaines crations contemporaines.

An unusally nice copy of this lovely book the binding and text are both very fine and the plates all pristine and as mint the cloth and gilt quite bright and very well preserved. FIRST EDITION OF THIS VERY BEAUTIFULLY ILLUSTRATED WORK BY RUDYARD KIPLING. THE W. HEATH ROBINSON ILLUSTRATIONS ARE SUPERB BY ANY MEASURE. The trade edition of this volume was issued to benefit the "Daily Telegraph" National Bands Fund and includes the text of a speech given by Kipling on the subject: "From the lowest point of view a few drums and fifes in a battalion are worth five extra miles on a route march." Robinson’s highly sensuous illustrations perfectly complement Kipling’s poems of British seafaring around the world. The grand poem SONG OF THE ENGLISH is followed by six subsidiary poems likely composed while the Kiplings were living in Vermont. The theme underlying much of this collection is that the English are the Chosen under the Lord. This is one of Kipling’s earliest verses specifically setting out his vision of the British Empire and the duties which it imposes on the English people. His definition of 'the English' is wide certainly embracing the people of the overseas Empire Australia New Zealand Canada South Africa but arguably also the Americans among whom he lived in the years working on the collection.<br> "The next important task I undertook was the illustration of an edition of Rudyard Kipling's A SONG OF THE ENGLISH to be published.in the year 1908. It became necessary for me to meet the author and discuss the proposed book with him. For this purpose I traveled down to Burwash where he lived at that time. This was an excursion I shall always remember. I was met a Heathfield and journeyed thence in a motor-car. There were few cars on the road in those days and this in itself was a joyful experience as we drove through the pleasant Sussex lanes. Bateman's the house at Burwash where Rudyard Kipling lived was a fine old building with stone mullioned windows. It was in the midst of wind-blown Sussex country. Three was a faint smell of the sea in the air wafting across the few miles of country from the shore where the Coastwise lights of England watch the ships of England go. It was a fitting setting in which to find the author of A SONG OF THE ENGLISH.<br> He met and entertained me with a quiet affability which speedily removed the shyness I felt at first in his presence. Before long I was quite at home with him. His own knowledge of illustration gave him an appreciation of the artist's point of view. While making suggestions he realized that the illustrator must have a free a hand as possible. His sympathetic understanding of my part in the undertaking made me feel tha I was consulting with a brother artist. I spent a happy and for me a helpful day. It was a great inspiration for the work I had in hand to be in such close association with the author's interesting personalty. i am always glad to remember that he was satisfied with my illustrations to his book."
