22270Without date or place. 1p 12mo. Seventeen lines of closely written text. In fair condition lightly aged and worn laid down on a leaf from an album. The recipient is not named but is addressed as 'Monsieur le Comte'. The letter concerns the count's 'ami et protégé' 'M. Leharivel' author of 'Grammaire Francaise Pasigraphique Simplifiee Et Regularisee Pour Servir de Base Fondamentale; Et Anecdotes Et Contes Historiques 1839 . Nodier is pleased that his 'Suffrage' has been useful to Leharivel but he has to explain that Leharivel is mistaken on the question of the place at the Academy Francaise which has fallen vacant on the death of 'M. Michand' i.e. the historian Joseph Michaud who had died 30 September 1839. This 'classe de l'Institut' has no corresponding members and as Leharivel is based in Belgium he is not eligible. Nodier would have conveyed this information to the count in person but he is burdened with work. This letter was in a notebook containing letters addressed to this Le Harivel.

2002001385Cornwall UK: GISS 'ON BOOKS 2002. This book has the added attraction of having a loosely laid in folded note which has been signed and inscribed by Simon Parker to the famous Poldark novelist Winston Graham. The note looks to be of the same paper used for the books pages so it has probably been signed by Simon Parker at the publishers. Both writers have strong connections with Cornwall. Book is in excellent condition and is possibly unread. Scarce having been signed. A lovely copy. Signed by Author. First Edition. Fine/Fine. FIRST EDITION. GISS 'ON BOOKS unknown

1895389441895. EHON - FAIRY TALES BARBATOU P. CHOIX DE FABLES DE LA FONTAINE. 2 volumes in 1. Tokio: MDCCCXCIV. Imprimerie de Tsoukidji-Tokio. Printer: Kimura Tokutarô; First Series printed September 20th published September 30th; Second Series printed October 10th published October 20th Meiji 27 1894. Large format plain paper book bound with the original covers into a contemporary Western style half leather binding. The first volume is 20 X 30 cm with 14 double page color woodcuts by Kano Tomonobu Kajita Hanko Kawanabe Kyôsui and Okakura Shôsô called for. The "deuxieme serie" is similarly bound 20 x 30 cm with 14 prints by the four previously listed artists along with Eda Sadashiko. This work with its French text and literary origins may be placed in the mainstream of an emerging international style in Japan. Yet it may be still be seen as squarely in the tradition of the Japanese illustrated book. It shares many of the characteristics of the revival of Japanese picture book printing in general at the end of the 19th century: an emerging Nihonga style which was an amalgam of theme and technique from East and West skilled printing increasingly restrained coloration etc. An interesting document of East-West cultural and artistic accommodation which gave rise to such hybrid vigor in world art. The bound-in covers and contents are perfect. However the leather binding is worn and was rebacked at some point. The two volumes complete and bound as one. unknown books
8vo., First Edition, with a frontispiece, text browning at edges, neat inscription on dedication; decorative cloth blocked in silver, backstrip lettered in silver, one corner lightly bruised else a very good, tight copy in price-clipped dustwrapper, the latter lightly age-soiled and with minor loss at lower edge of front panel. The bibliography of this school tale is confused. The author is given variously as W.E. Eastways (dustwrapper and title) and W.W. Eastways (series catalogue on dustwrapper rear panel). BLPC gives the latter and records two editions, neither of which matches the present copy. Here the pagination matches the first edition of 1949, though the imprint is Children's Press (not Collins). A scarce survival in this condition.

Early Russian compilation of the Chuvash fairy tales including 44 tales. The Chuvash people are a Turkic ethnic group, a branch of Oghurs, native to an area stretching from the Volga-Ural region to Siberia.

They speak Chuvash, a unique Turkic language that diverged from other languages in the family more than a millennium ago. (Source: Wikipedia).

1886007348Asnières-sur-Seine: Boussod Valadon & Cie 1886. First Edition Thus. Full Decorated Morocco. Near Fine. Gorgeously bound with exquisite illustrations most of which are lushly hand-colored -- they could pass as fully rendered watercolors done directly onto pages. Folio 39 by 30 cm. Unpaginated with text and illustrations on rectos only with leaves of heavy card bound in with tabs. 33 illustrations aquarelles of Beaumont are replicated in the two stories. Some illustrations remain in black and white but most were hand-colored and to a high level. Crimson morocco decorated with gilt borders featuring various floreate decorations and lattice work Rococo in sensibility yet symmetrical. Silk pastedown endpapers. Note that the colophon in the back states the book was created or finished off in December 1886 but the spine gives the publication date as 1887. Both dates are surely accurate. Condition: A few small spots of soil on the morocco. Light scattered soiling and/or foxing -- overall the book still reads as clean. Small stamp in corner of front blank -- back of FFEP -- from Easton Neston Library. As this discreet stamp is the only sign of a library provenance the book has none of the negative associations people would make of ex-lib and we have priced the copy accordingly.
