Paris: Armand Magnier, 1899. Livre. Illus. by Besnard, Flameng, Albert Laurens, Léandre, Adrien Moreau, Thévenot. Très bon. Reliure signée. Signé par l'illustrateur. 1e édition illustrée. In-4. Paris, Armand Magnier, 1899. 30 x 21,5 cm (R), in-4, 299 pp. - 5 planches hors texte, vignette de titre, portrait de l'auteur rehaussé de rouge et 47 gravures dans le texte, reliure de l'époque de demi-maroquin rouge à coins, dos à quatre nerfs repoussés orné portant en son centre un couvre-chef mosaïqué en deux tons posé sur deux épées croisées à froid, tête dorée, non rogné, couverture illustrée en deux tons conservée (reliure signée P. Affolter). Première édition illustrée, parue un an après l'originale. Tirage total à 500 exemplaires. Celui-ci, nominatif (M. Hérenger), sur CHINE FORT, comportant, comme les 40 premiers exemplaires sur Japon vieux, 4 états des bois : 1 état avant la retouche tiré à la presse à bras sur papier de l'ouvrage, 1 état sur Japon pelure tiré à la main par le graveur, 1 état avant la lettre et l'état avec la lettre. Les 56 (le portrait est en deux états) planches sur Japon pelure sont reliées au fil du volume et sont toutes signées à la mine de plomb par le graveur, qui a également agrémenté l'exemplaire d'un discret ex-dono au centre de la cartouche de l'acte I ("à l'ami et amateur, en souvenir de sa causette, le graveur Romagnol offre..."). Les deux autres suites sont reliées in-fine. L'exemplaire est par ailleurs enrichi des cinq planches d'essais en couleurs refusées, également placées au fil du volume, mais il manque une planche à la dernière des suites. François Thévenot a composé la couverture et le portrait et Besnard, Flameng, Charles Léandre, Albert Laurens et Adrien Moreau ont chacun illustré un acte. Carteret - qui critique (à notre humble avis) injustement cette édition au motif qu'elle est illustrée par différents artistes - cite 5 exemplaires non justifiés sur Chine de format in-4 comportant chacun les dessins originaux d'un artiste pour un acte. Notre exemplaire (dont les signatures sont celles d'un in-4 et non d'un grand in-8) pourrait être un exemplaire similaire, mais réservé au graveur, celui-ci ayant signé chacun de ses 56 tirages. Exemplaire agréablement établi par Paul Affolter. Quelques rousseurs éparses, surtout aux tranches, manque une planche (celle du début de l'acte I) à la suite avant la lettre. (MONOD, 9945 ; CARTERET, IV, 349 : "intéressante publication recherchée").
