Lettre à J.B. Sartre ou A l'agité du bocal - précieux exemplaire d'auteur signé par Louis-Ferdinand Céline

First edition, one of 150 copies on B.F.K. de Rives, the only issue after 50 other deluxe copies.
Some discreet restorations to spine and covers.
At the colophon, our copy is exceptionally enriched with the very rare manuscript signature of Louis-Ferdinand Céline, then in exile in Denmark.
The publisher, Pierre Lanauve de Tartas, specified, just above Céline's signature, "Author's copy".
This very rare copy indeed bears, printed on the front cover, the initial title of the work: Lettre à J. B. Sartre. We include the flying slip bearing the final title "à l'agité du bocal" which was glued onto the entirety of the print run subsequently distributed.

Precious author's copy of Céline's scathing response to Jean-Paul Sartre, who, in Réflexions sur la question juive, had accused him of having been paid by the Germans under the Occupation for having held such indefensible antisemitic positions.
