Les Robert Macaire Caricaturana. Paris: 1838. First edition. Folio 13 3/16 x 10 3/8 inches; 338 x 263 mm. One hundred and one hand-colored lithographed plates complete heightened with gum arabic. In this copy plate 96 "A tous les coeurs bien nés que le patrie est chère!!" DR-451 published 10/28/1838 has been substituted by the insertion of "Robert Macaire 2e. Sèrie 7. Nouveautés philantropiques." DR-872 published 04/04/1841 - The plate number has been changed in old ink to "96" - most likely by the publisher prior to binding - see note below. An original hand colored example of plate 96 "A tous les coeurs bien nés que le patrie est chère!!" DR-451 published 10/28/1838 has now been inserted after plate 95.

An excellent example of Honoré Daumier's most celebrated work the superb hand coloring bright and fresh. This is only the second time we have seen this book in the publisher's binding. Note: The second series of Robert Macaire - twenty lithographs DR-866 - DR-885 was published from 10/25/1840 to 09/11/1842 and is excessively rare - we have never seen or handled any of these plates before. "Les Robert Macaire remains Daumier's best-known work. Baudelaire chose it. for specific discussion in his essay on French caricaturists and Carteret accorded it a place in his bibliography. Its contemporary popularity was immense. As an album it was published by Aubert in an edition of 2500 copies a far larger number than for any other series however the vast majority of these copies were issued with plain lithographs - only a few copies were issued with hand-coloring. Yet so persistent was the demand that 6000 two-volume sets of reduced copies called Les cent-et-un Robert Macaire were published in 1839." Ray. Though 2500 may have been printed few have survived. OCLC/KVK records only two complete copies in institutions worldwide Sadleir's at the Morgan Library and one at Yale. ABPC reports only seven complete copies at auction since 1935. The 'reduced' edition of 1839-41 Les cent-et-un Robert Macaire is still quite rare at auction two complete copies only since 1975 but there are more copies in institutional holdings. "When politics became a forbidden topic in Le Charivari where Caricaturana first appeared Daumier and Philipon turned to social satire. If they could not attack Louis-Philippe directly they could at least show the kind of society that flourished under his gross and venal regime. Taking the flamboyant and florid swindler Macaire from the character that Frederick Lemaitre had created in a hack melodrama called L'Auberge des adrets they showed him. ranging through all kinds of commercial enterprise in the stock market in the banks in the courts and in dozens of other public settings never failing to find eager dupes. Though Daumier's designs are are superb in themselves. they would be incomplete without the unfailing wit and point of Philipon's captions" Ray.

OCLC/KVK records only two copies in institutions worldwide Sadleir's at the Morgan Library and at Yale. Though both are complete only the Morgan copy is in the original cartonnage portfolio. ABPC reports only three complete copies at auction since 1935 and it appears that at least two were rebound; it is safe we think to presume that the third copy was also rebound. The 'reduced' edition of 1839 is still quite rare at auction two copies only since 1975 but there are more copies in institutional holdings.
