Vicaire, VII-908 /// (2f.)-XI-258-(2f.) // (2f.)-VII-162-(1f.). Original edition lavishly illustrated with color compositions in the text by Pierre Vidal. One of 700 copies on wove paper (no. 152), this one enriched with an original signed watercolor by Vidal on the false-title, an additional state in black of most of the illustrations, mounted on China paper and inserted in the book, and the prospectus. Minor rubbing to covers and edges. Also included: Les TYPES DE PARIS. Paris, Édition du Figaro, Plon, Nourrit, 1889. In-4, blue half-chagrin with corners, spine with 5 ornate nerves, gilt head (period binding). First edition of this collective collection containing texts by Edmond de Goncourt, Daudet, Zola, Maupassant, Huysmans, Mallarmé, Mirbeau, Richepin and others. Illustrated cover, color title, 16 black or color plates and numerous black or color compositions in the text by Jean-François Raffaëlli. The collation differs from that given by Vicaire, but the numbering of the plates seems fanciful and the work appears complete.
