First edition printed on ordinary paper. Light worming to covers and endpapers which are also very slightly yellowed due to the stitching threads having bled. Fine autograph inscription signed by André Fraigneau to Manuel Burrus: "... cet antidote contre tous les modernismes fourbus. Souvenir amical de Fraigneau..." ["...this antidote against all worn-out modernisms. Friendly remembrance from Fraigneau..."]
