	HENRY, JAMES Daumier, Caricaturist PA: Rodale Press, 1954. First Edition; First Printing. Hardcover. Illustrated by Browne, Freda. 36 pages; Fine/No Dust Jacket. Covered with original Glassine cover. Beige with red on black spine boards with gilt lettering. Boards are straight, tips are pointed, spine is square and pages are clean. An excellent gift! As we attempt, at the present day, to write the history of everything, it would be strange if we had happened to neglect the annals of caricature; for the very essence of the art of Cruikshank and Gavarni, of Daumier and Leech, is to be historical; and everyone knows how addicted is this great science to discoursing about itself..
