First edition, number 44 of 50 copies printed on Van Gelder Holland watermarked paper; this copy issued with a duplicate suite of Chagall's illustrations printed on Montval pure-rag watermarked paper, intended only for the first 25 copies printed. The total edition comprised 200 copies. Chagall, a good friend of Goll's, was the perfect choice of illustrator, so often incorporating horses into his own artworks. First published in 1925, this eccentric and satirical short story is written from the point of view of Goliath, an over-worked carriage horse in Paris, newly elected to the board of directors of the horse union. His manifesto outlines, among other demands, eight-hour working days for the equine community and the prohibition of the making of sausages out of their corpses. A thinly veiled political allegory, Goll uses the plight of the working horses to attack capitalism and the exploitation of the working class. Quarto. With 2 etchings and 5 lithographs by Chagall, and additional duplicate suite of Chagall's illustrations loose at end. Wood-engraving by Robert Blanchett to front cover. Original wrappers, gatherings unsewn as issued, edges uncut. With original glassine dust jacket. Housed in publisher's pale brown card chemise with silk ties.
