Abstract

en_US
At last I have a very good copy of this simply wonderful book! The illustrations' colors are delightful. The best of them may be FM and WC. Boutet de Monvel is rightly highly praised by Arbuthnot and Sutherland. The publisher's name is lacking on the title page of these copies. On the cover one finds Librairie Plon/Rue Garancière 10 a Paris. See 1871/1875? for an edition that has E. Plon-Nourrit et Cie Éditeurs/Rue Garancière 10 a Paris on the cover and Plon-Nourrit et Cie, Imprimeurs-Editeurs//Rue Garancière 8, Paris on the title page. These copies are better than those in their colors and are in better condition. There is also now a copy, which I have listed under 1871/1873, which is like this copy in having nothing on the title page but has Librairie Plon/Rue Garancière 8 a Paris on the cover. Better equipped bibliographers can help with the time when the bookstore moved and when Nourrit joined with Plon (or Plon got rid of Nourrit?). The Hale copy was originally sold by The Booke Shop in Providence. The Lien copy has a stamp on the inside front cover that reads Prix 40 fr. followed by a small symbol and P. 1926 N. It is inscribed by David M. Danials of White Bear, MN.
