About This Item
Sernor: M. Dufour, 1977. Limited Edition. Hardcover. Near fine. Quarto, 2 volumes, 1024pp. (altogether), illustrated. A near fine set in the publisher's black morocco with gilt decoration. Apart from gentle bumps to the top right corners of the front boards of both volumes, very slightly affecting the page block of of volume II, a lovely, bright set. This is example number 205 of 260 limited copies. It is also SIGNED and warmly INSCRIBED by Vatelot on a front blank leaf: "A monsieur Scott Lumberge [Lumberye?] avec toute ma sympathie et mon amical souvenir. Minneapolis Nov. 1988. Etienne Vatelot." A marvelous example of this wonderful book, made all the more wonderful by the full-page inscription by the author, and scarce thus (this is the only signed copy we were able to find either in commerce or auction records). Please contact us with inquiries or requests for more images.

About Cleveland Book Company
We are proud members of the ABAA.
As a small, independent bookseller in Cleveland, Ohio, I deal in general used, rare, and antiquarian books, autographs, manuscripts, pamphlets, and personal and family papers in all subjects. My family has been in the antiquarian book business since 1971. Are you moving, downsizing, or doing some spring cleaning? Did you inherit or otherwise come into some old books? Or, maybe you've collected modern novels from the last thirty or fifty years. No matter what kinds of books you have, we'd love to take a look at them! We travel throughout Ohio, western Pennsylvania and New York, southern Michigan, and eastern Indiana, and will travel farther in some cases to look at whole libraries or even just a few particularly interesting books. Give us a call at (216) 352-3940 and we can talk more about the kinds of books you have.
