Le colonel de La Rocque

First edition of this collection of political satirical drawings published in Le canard enchaîné and Marianne, a Service de Presse (advance) copy.
Small tears and corner losses to spine at board margins, which is inevitable given the fragility of this paper, a small mark in blue ballpoint pen on the back board.
Fine and amusing autograph inscription signed by Jean Effel to Carlo Rim and his wife Alice with a small drawing of a little bird: "Au salopard Carlo rim le salopard Jean Effel avec son amitié et un petit oiseau (et une tache)" ["To the bastard Carlo rim the bastard Jean Effel with his friendship and a little bird (and a stain)"], as Jean Effel's pen ink has smudged.
