Illustrated edition with 16 original colour engravings by Emilio Grau Sala, printed in an edition of 350 copies on Rives wove paper.
Spine of the chemise and boards of the slipcase marginally sunned, as is usually the case, boards evenly and lightly toned, a fine copy internally.
First edition and complete run of the 9 G.L.M. cahiers issued between May 1936 and March 1939.
A few spines slightly faded, as is often the case; otherwise a pleasing copy, complete with its original publisher’s slipcase in full grey boards, with red printed title label pasted to the spine.
