Description

One volume bound as two, complete. ONE OF ONLY 20 LARGE-PAPER COPIES OF THE FIRST AND ONLY EDITION of this spectacular, monumental, and scholarly historical dictionary of Paris, with exhaustive articles on ALL of the streets, monuments, personalities, etc. of the Ville Lumière. XVI, 1695 pp. ONE OF ONLY 20 NUMBERED COPIES PRINTED ON FINE DUTCH LAID PAPER. The other copies of the edition are printed on cheap wood-pulp paper, which is browning, crumpling, and unpleasant to handle. 4to. Attractively bound in contemporary three-quarters cloth and marbled boards. Entirely uncut. Minor wear to extremities of bindings, else FINE AND BRIGHT. Large-paper sets of this important publication are of the greatest rarity--even the Bibliothèque Natonale doesn't have one.
