An excellent unsophisticated extensive run of this celebrated satirical journal with the coloured illustrated covers titles and tables as well as a large number of 'bis' issues.L'Eclipse was founded by Polo after the suspension by the censor of the journal La Lune and was to become the base for the great talents of caricaturist André Gill. It was Gill who produced the majority of the colour caricatures which illustrate the front covers of each issue of L'Eclipse. Together with Gill other leading caricaturists produced work for L'Eclipse including Paul Hadol Albert Humbert Alfred Le Petit Moloch Gedeon Lorentz etc.The range of the journal's visual ridicule was wide and encompassed all aspects and personalities of French society from literature musicals and the theatre to the politicians and the miltary. As well as one of Gill's favourite targets the French president Adolphe Thiers many other renowned figures found themselves on the front covers of L'Eclipse: Alexandre Dumas Ponson du Terrail Emile Zola Jules Valles Charles Monselet Edouard Manet Richard Wagner Victor Hugo Alphonse Daudet Theophile Gautier Edmond de Goncourt Offenbach Barbey d'Aurevilly Henry Monnier Napoleon III the President of the United States Grant Bismarck Gambetta Proudhon and many others.As well as the numerous 'bis' issues listed below this set includes the scarce supplement for issue 119 'Belisaire' and the 5 supplements issued at the end of the 'Troisième Année'.An extensive number of 'bis' issues were published together with some numbers published with duplicate numbers i.e. not strictly 'bis' numbers but issues with matching numeration listed here in brackets and this set includes the following: 14 bis 15bis 29 bis 37 bis 44 bis 46 bis 49 bis 51 bis 53 bis 55 bis 59 bis 71 bis 87 bis 92 bis 98 bis 99 bis 103 bis 105 bis 106 bis 114 bis 116 bis 127 bis 128 bis 129 bis 132 bis 133 bis 134 bis the five supplementary issues published at the end of the 'Troisième Année' 149 bis 151 bis 156 bis 160 bis 164 bis. hardcover

The River of Golden Sand.

1880157305London: John Murray 1880. Deluxe presentation copy inscribed to the author's sister and ardent supporter Rare publisher's deluxe edition presentation copy of this classic travel narrative touchingly inscribed on the first blank of volume one "Fanny Gill with the best love of her brother William Gill". In 1883 following Gill's premature death in Sinai Frances "Fanny" Gill 1842-1930 was the driving force behind the creation of the RGS's Gill medal and John Murray's publication of a condensed memorial edition of the text. Captain William Gill 1843-1882 who served with the Royal Engineers between 1864 and 1876 was inspired to explore the relatively unknown Chinese hinterland by the earlier travels of Thomas Blakiston and Baron Ferdinand von Richthofen. In July 1876 Gill visited Berlin to consult with von Richthofen about preparations for the journey and then set sail for Asia. After several months spent visiting Peking Shanghai Chengde Jehol and the sea terminus of the Great Wall he began his expedition in 1877 following the Yangtze to the city of Chongqing in the company of Evelyn Colborne Baber. In Sichuan province he ventured into the remote Min mountains - becoming the first European to explore the region - and then undertook a four-month journey westwards with William Mesny to Yunnan and Tibet following the course of the Jinsha "Golden Sand" river the name given to the upper stretches of the Yangtze. "From Tachienlu Dajianlu 8340 feet he ascended to the summit level of the great Tibetan plateau continuing his journey by Litang 18280 feet to Batang 8546 feet in a tributary valley of the Kinsha; and then crossing that river he turned south travelling parallel to the river to Talifu Dalifu the western capital of Yunnan" ODNB. The scientific results from Gill's epic expedition were first made public in 1878 in the Journal of the Royal Geographical Society with Gill awarded the RGS's gold medal the following year and the gold medal of the Paris Geographical Society in 1880. Fittingly Murray's 1883 condensed edition was edited by his fellow traveller Baber by now Chinese Secretary at the British Legation in Peking. While the number of deluxe copies of the first edition is unknown we have traced only one other example which appeared at Sotheby's in 1989 and again in 2014. 2 vols octavo. Engraved frontispieces 2 folding plates including colour illustration not called for after the original brass memorial plaque to Gill Professor Edward Palmer and Lieutenant Harold Charrington installed in the Nelson Chamber in the crypt of St. Paul's Cathedral 8 folding maps linen-backed general map of China showing author's route unfolding to 450 x 452 mm in rear pocket of vol. I engraved vignettes on title pages. With tissue-guarded portrait of Gill after an etching by Theodore Blake Wirgman 1848-1925 sometime extracted from 1883 edition of present work and laid down on vol. I frontispiece verso. Original full vellum black and red spine labels lettered in gilt spines with gilt vignettes of Tibetan monastery and gilt rolls and tools boards with double-ruled gilt frames and gilt corner devices gilt vignettes of two opium smokers and a tea drinker to front covers board edges and turn-ins rolled in gilt combed marbled endpapers edges red. Early 20th-century ownership signature of one J. A. Barnes in both vols. Binding bright with just a little soiling and rubbing internally clean plates and maps well-preserved folding plate in vol. II slightly proud at top edge where sometime carelessly refolded. A handsome near-fine copy. Howgego III Continental G19; Yakushi G57. hardcover
