18684980Paris Arnaud dé Vresse 1868 Première édition. Une collection de planches coloriées à la main par Cham. Nous avons vu des enregistrements de cet article avec différents nombres de planches. La nôtre est conforme à WorldCat / OCLC : 213799963 qui indique qu'il y a 18 planches, y compris le titre (d'autres indiquent de 10 à 19 planches). Le titre n'est pas coloré dans cette édition, mais les 17 "Actualités" ont toutes des couleurs vives et attrayantes. Volume relié avec le titre répété sur la première planche. Ce dernier est passablement assombri et frotté, et il manque environ un tiers du dos. La reliure est fragile au niveau de la charnière avant et a été renforcée avec du ruban adhésif d'archivage. Les pages de garde sont considérablement assombries, mais les planches le sont moins. Elles portent toutes le titre courant "Actualités" en haut. Chacune porte un numéro en haut à droite - bien qu'il soit assez irrégulier, allant du numéro 1 au numéro 285 ! Elles traitent toutes de la politique de l'époque, notamment de la famine en Irlande, de l'unification de l'Italie (qui venait de s'achever) et des tensions accrues avec les Prussiens, qui allaient bientôt déboucher sur la guerre franco-prussienne. Chaque plaque porte l'empreinte : "Lith. Destouches, r. Paradis p.re 28." Nous avons vu d'autres exemplaires qui ne portaient pas tous cette empreinte, et qui n'avaient pas de numéros sur le bord supérieur, ou qui n'étaient pas colorés. Dans l'ensemble, il s'agit d'un bon exemplaire d'une pièce rare. 35cm x 26cm.

18684980Paris: Arnaud dé Vresse 1868. First edition. A collection of hand coloured plates by Cham. We have seen records of this item with differing number of plates contained. Ours conforms with WorldCat / OCLC: 213799963 which states that there are 18 plates including the title others range from 10 to 19 plates. The title is uncoloured in this edition but the 17 "Actualités"all have bright and attractive hand colouring. Hardback volume with the title repeated to the front board. This is quite darkened and rubbed and about 1/3rd of the spine is lacking. Binding is weak to the front hinge and has been reinforced with archival tape. The end papers are significantly darkened but the plates less so. They all have the running title "Actualités" to the top. Each has a number to the top right - although there are fairly erratic ranging from number 1 to 285! All deal with the politics of the day including the famine in Ireland Italian Unification just coming to its conclusion and the increased tensions with the Prussians which would soon lead to the Franco-Prussian war. Each plate has the imprint: "Lith. Destouches r. Paradis p.re 28." We have seen other copies which do not all bear this imprint and which do not have numbers to the top edge or which are uncoloured. Overall a decent copy of a scarce item. 35cm x 26cm. . Première édition. Une collection de planches coloriées à la main par Cham.
