Description:
Hardcover edition published by Bibliotheque Nationale de France, 2003. French language edition. 9-3/4" X 11", 292 pages, sewn binding, copper cloth covered spine. No dust jacket, but I'm not certain if this edition was issued with a dust jacket. This is a thorough survey of the art collection of the National Library of France, with an emphasis on the artworks of the Renaissance. Each artwork is pictured and critiqued on the facing page. Artists represented in the volume include: Durer, Van Cleve, Errard, Salviati, Delaune, Casalini, Bronzino, Vasari, and many many more. This copy is not a remainder, not a library discard. No writing on the text, no former ownership marks. The text is clean, the boards are crisp with no bumped corners. Wear is limited to the first flyleaf and the facing title page, where what looks like a piece of tape was removed, lifting some of the color from both pages. The mark is about an inch long and half inch wide. Again the text is entirely in French. The photos attached…

Description:
Hardcover first American edition, published by McGraw-Hill, 1968. Originally published in 1928, this is the 1968 English translation. The story of the marriage of Martha and Kurt Dreyer, and Martha's plans to murder Kurt. Stated 'First Edition' on the copyright page, along with the code 45715 printed on the same line. The dust jacket is intact, though it has been price clipped on the front flap. Bottom text edge is smooth. This copy is somewhat confusing as the back flap of the jacket has 'Book-Of-The Month' printed on the top edge. However, there are no additional points to indicate that this is a club edition, for example there is no blind stamp mark on the back cover board. The bottom edge of the text block being smooth, (instead of rough which would indicate a first edition - first printing), is a point that this is a first edition - second state. Difficult to be absolutely certain without the key point of the printed price on the front flap. Slate gray cloth covered boards, with black cloth…
