In Firenze. Apresso L. S. Olschki, 1911. Hard Cover. 3 p.l., [v]-xl, [1], 524 pages, 1 l.; 43.5 cm. Reproduces 101 facsimiles of woodcuts in the Venice, 1491 edition. A magnificent effort of book production to celebrate the 700th anniversary of the Divine Comedy. Gabriele d'Annunzio was to have contributed a life of Dante. He never completed it, so his 'Vita' was replaced by an earlier, already published essay on Dante. Everything else is first-rate. The handmade paper was commissioned for this edition, which was printed in 300 copies. (this is number 41). The binding is leather over wooden boards with iron clasps, bosses, and a bust of Dante (in six copies, one of which is in the Pierpont Morgan Library, the clasps, bosses, etc. are of silver). In this copy the previous owner, a Dante scholar, began annotating on the title-page, the beautiful title-page. He made two notes, then came to his senses (or someone beat him senseless).We have had a clamshell box made for it by James DiMarcantonio, Hope Bindery & Box Company. The condition is generally excellent; there is some scuffing, a few of the nails for the ironwork have come out. We had the leather of the clasps replaced. One of the great editions of Dante. OB1000.

Autograph letter signed twice "Eugénie Krantz" to Edmond Lepelletier
Paris, 39 rue Descartes, 8th January 1896, 2 pp. in-12 oblong
THE DEATH OF VERLAINE
Very moving, first-hand testimony on the last moments of Verlaine by his mistress Eugenie Krantz. Close to misery, constantly running after money, she sheltered the dying poet in her apartment at 39 Rue Descartes. He died on the evening of January 8, 1896, just moments after this letter was written.
"Paul Verlaine, your devoted friend, is living his last moments..."
In a phonetic french, she writes:
"Monsieur Paul Verlaine vautre dévoué ami est à la dernière extremite. Veuliez je vous emprie venire le voire desuite car peutetre demain il serai trop [tard]… Venez le plus vite posibl si vous vouloi voir votre ami. Monsieur mes amitiés empresse sons amie Eugénie Krantz. Priaire monsieur de venire desuite pour monsieur Paul Verlaine. […] Mlle Krantz 39 rue Descartes"
