Œuvres de F. Rabelais; Nouvelle Édition, augmentée de plusieurs extraits des chroniques admirables du puissant roi Gargantua ainsi que d'un grand nombre de variantes et de deux chapitres inédits du Vè livre d'après un manuscrit de la Bibliothèque Nationale et accompagnée de notes explicatives et d'une notice historique contenant les documents originaux relatifs à la vie de Rabelais

Paris, Bibliothèque-Charpentier. [no date]. (hardcover) Good. lxxii, 575pp, [1]. Undated (c.late 1800s; presumed later than 1861 Edition). 16mo. Bound in full leather, acid-treated for marbling effect; spine with raised bands, compartments decorated with simple-rules in gilt, title compartment lettered in gilt with dark-leather accent beneath; top board with half-binding decorative borders at hinge and corners. Marbled eps. While attractive enough as a decorative leather binding, the binding is - to be perfectly blunt - rather amateurish. It's acceptable enough, but certainly not the work of any great binder.. Volume with some blemishes. Boards beginning to crack at hinges; starting at gutters. Textblock age-toned and somewhat brittle; consequently, occasional chipping and small closed-tears at edges. Spot of toning near bottom corner of title-page, ever-so slightly toning through to next leaf. Text in French. Eugène Fasquelle, Éditeur. Printed by Émile Colin (Lagny).
