RARE AND SOUGHT-AFTER FIRST EDITION, FOR WHICH IT HAS NOT BEEN PRINTED ON LARGE PAPER. Le Petit Chose is the first novel published by Alphonse Daudet.
Copy enriched with a portrait engraved after a famous photograph by Nadar, unsigned, printed in sepia (bound at the top) and an autograph letter from Alphonse Daudet (flying, 2 pp. in-12) inviting a relative, perhaps a theatre director, and Réjane to see in him a first draft of the comic fairy tale from Tartarin.
Original edition bound with great elegance.
