Description: FINE BINDING: Extremely handsome three-quarters morocco with incredible colored paper, signed by French fine binders CANAPE et CORRIEZ with their binder’s stamp. First Edition, Duodecimo, Flaubert wrote this piece of juvenalia while he was a teenager- incredibly, it as inspired by real life events! It tells the story of a bibliophile so obsessed with possessing rare objects that there are seemingly no lengths he won’t go to do possess them! Relatable material to many book collectors and enthusiasts, to be sure. Gorgeous leather and marbled endpapers! This book was printed on fine laid Arches paper by F. Paillart, Abbeville, in June 1929. It was translated by Theodore Wesley Koch, who adds his signature and a personal inscription. Book in fine condition- very handsome, very wonderful production, a pleasure to own!
