Madame Gervaisais

First edition.

Full blue percaline binding, smooth spine gilt with a central floral motif, date and double gilt rules at foot, brown shagreen title label with minor scuffing along the left edge, original wrappers preserved, slightly later binding signed in blind by Pierson.

Ink initials on the front endpaper and upper wrapper, serving as an ex-libris.

A handsome copy, tastefully bound by Pierson and virtually free of foxing.
