First edition of this issue of the magazine consisting of two refolded sheets. Inevitable minor marginal tears of no consequence to the sheets. On the first, a color woodcut representing Leconte de Lisle by Coll-Toc. On the following ones, text by Paul Verlaine in first edition entitled "Leconte de Lisle" which is the first of twenty-seven contributions by Paul Verlaine to the magazine. Paul Verlaine, always impecunious, will be the only contributor to the magazine that Léon Vanier, its director, will agree to remunerate in order to help him financially.
