xxiv + 202pp., Introduction by Aldous Huxley. An anonymous translation of a French erotic novel named "Tableaux des murs du temps", originally published in an edition of just one copy between 1750-1760, and reprinted secretly at Bruxelles, probably by Jules Gay, about 1863. The authorship remains uncertain; it has been ascribed to Claude Prosper Jolyot de Crébillon and to Alexandre Jean Joseph Le Riche de La Popelinière The Introduction by Aldous Huxley is extracted from an essay accompanying "The Opportunities of the Night" (London: Chapman & Hall, 1925), Eric Sutton's translation of Crebillon's "La Nuit et le moment." This is the Brandon House edition of this work ,16.3 centimetres in height, and has pink wrappers (front, spine and back) illustrated with a period montage drawing of women in various stages of undress; art by John Brooks Miller. The Brandon logo - the turrets of a castle with an entrance gate between them - is in the top right-hand corner of the front cover, with the price 95¢ immediately below it. The title and author's name is enclosed in a fancy oval on the front cover with, at the foot of the front cover, the information that there's an Introduction by Aldous Huxley. There exists however, in the collection of Mr. Paul Bayrer, a variant edition of A Lady of Quality. The variant is a good eight millimetres taller, being in fact the same height as other Brandon House titles, and the front cover is illustrated with a rather more interesting picture of a single woman, her face partially obscured by a veil and holding a fan in her right hand. Instead of the Brandon logo, there is a small oval medallion containing the initials 'LP' and the price 95¢. The title and author are not enclosed in this variant. The spines of both editions are more or less the same, with the familiar logo of the letter 'P' enclosed within an oblong frame at the top and with the title and author printed down the spine in italics. Both editions have the number '903' across the bottom of the spine. The interiors of the two editions are identical. Which of these came first is difficult to know, as is the reason for the variant. Paul Bayrer gives precedence to the larger of the two, however, theorizing that when publishers wish to save money they tend to reduce the size of books and thus save costs on paper. (Description courtesy of Patrick Kearney). 903. Paperback. Light shelfwear; covers covered with clear laminate. From the library of Patrick J. Kearney, with his small name sticker at the bottom of the front pastedown .Very good.
