Description:
1764. Paris, 1764. 29pp. Selfwrappers. Uncut.

Description:
1829. Paris, Imprimerie Royale, 1829. 28pp. Orwrs. (dam., loose & waterstaining throughout). Answer of the administrator of the Imprimerie Royale, M. Baron Villebois, to the demand of the Parisian printers of the suppression of the Imprimerie Royale in 1829. They found the Imprimerie Royale dangerous for the freedom, destructive for commerce, and thought it misused the taxpayers' money. In this report Villebois refutes, like his predecessors had done, the arguments of the printers. [c.f. Duprat, Histoire de l'Imprimerie Impériale de France...].

Description:
1914. Paris, Lemerre, 1914-1919. 8 volumes. Half blue calf, marbled boards. Original wrappers bound-in. Nice copy of the authoritative editions of the complete works of Pierre de Ronsard. Ronsard (1524-1585) was born at the Manoir de la Possonnière, in the village of Couture-sur-Loir, Loir-et-Cher, France. Together with Joachim de Bellay, Ronsard was one of the seven members of the Pléiade (or Brigade, as it was first called) and he was the acknowledged chief of the Pléiade and its most voluminous poet. He was probably also its best, though a few isolated pieces of Belleau excel him in airy lightness of touch. His popularity in his own time was overwhelming and immediate, and his prosperity was unbroken. During his last days he lived chiefly at a house which he possessed in Vendôme, the capital of his native province, at his abbey at Croix-Val in the same neighbourhood, or else at Paris. The character and fortunes of Ronsard's works are among the most remarkable in… Read More

Description:
Mostly European-themed Chinese shadow puppetry plates. Metz, Dembour et Gangel, n.d. (c. 1843); Seven plates (out of possibly ten published) (margins cut (size 29.5 x 40 cm.) and pasted on cardboard).
Dembour & Gangel were specialised in popular prints and imagery; founded in 1840 by Adrien-Népomucène Dembour and his associate Gangel in the city of Metz. In 1851 the printing house became Gangel and later Gangel frères et Didion.
Starting in 1843, Dembour & Gangel printed shadow puppetry in order for children to be able to learn and play with traditional and vernacular stories. They take the famous shows of Dominique Seraphin (Metz 1747-1800) as a basis thus evoking his success. Seraphin was the first to bring this type of entertainment from Germany to France and played his "Spectacle pour les enfans de France" in Versailles for the royal family from 1780.
These plates depict playful carnaval scenes and classical theatrical and story themes. They are to be To be cut out & articulated with cotton and… Read More
