Les buveurs d'eau

First French edition, the first having appeared the year before in Brussels, published by Lebègue.
Half navy blue shagreen over marbled paper boards, spine (very slightly faded) in six compartments a little rubbed (but not significantly), marbled endpapers and pastedowns.
A very rare autograph inscription signed by Henry Murger to his friend Michel Carré on half-title.
A tiny lack at the center of one pastedowns, a little light insignificant foxing, marginal trace of a label to half-title.
