Paris: H. Floury, 1925. Hardcover. Good -. French illustrated children's tale of two Alsatian children, Lisel and Yerri, who travel with Saint Florentin to Paris to treat the young king Saint Louis. A lovely copy of the illustrations and text, in a beat up binding. With magnificent chromolithograph illustrations including a double page illustration of Paris and a kitchen/cooking scene in a castle. With charming medieval inspired illustrations throughout, of daring knights on horseback, castles perched on hilltops and proud queens and kings, by Victor Huen and Jean-Jacques Waltz ("Oncle Hansi", or "Hansi"). Folio, 76pp, patterned end papers. Illustrated paper covered boards, the title in black and red at the front board. Front board illustration in the manner of an illuminated manuscript. The spine (amateur repair to spine with black tape which partially overlaps the front board) and the front inner hinge inexpertly repaired. A couple of page corners chipped, but not near the image or text.
