Madame Edwarda, par Pierre Angélique. Préface de Georges Bataille
Inbunden bok. Jean-Jacques Pauvert éditeur. 1956. 81 sidor.
Gott skick.
Green felt boards with title label to both panels and to spine. Spine and its label are very faded, as usual, due to the weak coloring method. Boards' color has shifted into a not unattractive marbled pattern, and their edges a bit faded. Internally very fine. Housed in a clear plastic cassette as issued, with a few small tears. Printed in 1500 numbered copies, of which this is nr 1004.
The third (though the first "normal" and not-impossible-to-find) edition of this work, first published in 1941 in a private edition of only 50 copies, and in 1945 in an edition of 108 copies. This is also the first edition with Bataille's name mentioned, though here only as writer of the preface. (L)
