About This Item
Paris: Jardins Des Modes [1931]. Cloth book with sheared edges and original herringbone patterned spine, light spotting to covers and some offsetting internally, but a very nice copy overall. Unlike any other cloth book, this is indeed, "a minor work of art," (Bader pg. 52). The story of creation told in French and illustrated with bright, bold colors printed directly on linen pages with vegetable dyes. Rare.. First Edition. Original Cloth. Very Good. Illus. by Francoise. Oblong 4to.
