Ah quel conte! Conte politique et astronomique
Chez Les frères Vasse|à Bruxelles [Brussels] 1755|10 x 16 cm|relié
New edition, reprint of the original published by the same publisher in 1754. Some title pages in red and black. Contemporary full brown sheep binding. Spine with raised bands decorated with fillets. Red morocco title label. Loss at foot. Title label rubbed and scraped, erasing the letters ONT of "Conte". In the seventh part, the binder has placed p.11 before the first page of text. Some parts do not have a half-title, this is not a defect, only the red and black title pages have a half-title and are not paginated. Very fresh paper.
Third tale published by the author, after Tansaï et Néardané (1734) and Le Sopha (1739), this last oriental and fairy tale benefited from a complex genesis
