Les cinq cents millions de la Begum suivi de Les révoltés de la Bounty

Red-medallion Steamer binding edition (single volume), illustrated with 48 drawings by Léon Benett (40 for the first title and 5 for the second). 

Catalogue FX at end.
Publisher’s full polychrome pictorial boards signed Charles Magnier, headcaps slightly sagging as almost always, upper-cover plaque signed Paul Souze, a few small foxing spots.

A pleasing copy, the binding retaining fine freshness.
Two heirs, one French and one German, divide 500 million francs between them. Each builds a city in keeping with his dreams: the Frenchman an hygienist city, the German a city of steel.
