Hardback. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. ~Chatelin binding in original half green morocco, blue paper to boards, darkened. Raised bands and gilt lettering and decor to spine; gilt fillets to leather on boards. Spine slightly sunned. Original endpapers, uncracked at gutters. Marking and some abrasion to front…board, minor marks to rear board. Top edges gilt. 8vo (13 x 20cm). Heavy foxing to blank endpages; Light foxing to fore-edges. Tiny gilt 'Chatelin' binder's stamp to inside front board: this is Antoine Chatelin (1820-c. 1890), a French bookbinder responsible for many fine bindings; forced into exile in London 1852, after being convicted for taking part in a banquet commemorating the proclamation of the 1848 Republic, Chatelin exhibited in the 1862 International Exhibition alongside Bedford and Riviere, and bound for the great collector the Duc d'Aumale. Profusely illustrated with in-text caricature illustrations by Paul Gavarni, Honore Daumier, and others, 'the artists of the Charivari, and the first Caricaturists of France', as the pseudonymous author puts it in the preface (p. iv). Le Charivari, an illustrated satirical magazine published from 1832 to 1937, was the model for the English Punch and was distinguished by the brilliant illustrations of, among others, Gavarni and Daumier. The pseudonymous author of this volume had published 'Written caricatures: A sketch of peripatetic philosophy, from hints in the Paris Charivari' in 1841, the year before, with illustrations by John Leech; France Daguerrotyped, an 1842 series of mordant reflections on the statesmen and politics of 1840s France, takes this inheritance a step further by using artists from the Charivari itself, while setting itself decidedly against the Charivari's broadly republican sympathies. 'Captain Capsicum Cayenne Pepper', the author, admits in his preface that 'the international political opinions which I advance are in most cases directly at variance with those which they (the illustrators) profess' (iv). A scarce book with illustrations by the foremost caricaturists of 19th-century France, in a fine if worn binding by a celebrated French binder. ~Robust packaging. Overseas orders trackable on request. Used books are exempt from USA tariffs. 1st edn. Hardback. Size: iv, 295pp.
