Description from the seller
Detailed description:
Superb set of four issues of the medical and artistic journal 'SYNTHÈSE,' a prestigious publication reserved for the medical community, published in Paris by the Société d’Études et de Publicité (3, rue Clément-Marot, 8th arrondissement).
These pieces belong to the luxury series, personalized in the name of Monsieur Georges Tétard — most likely the famous Art Deco cabinetmaker and decorator (1880–1950), a major figure in French design.
Each volume is printed on the presses of the Artistic Edition and bears the mention 'Luxury Copy' with the letter of tirage or the handwritten name of the recipient.
Details of the volumes :
December 1935 – Third year, No. 12 – 140 pages – Luxe edition “AA”
May 1936 – Fourth year, No. 5 – 146 pages – Luxe 'M' copy (partially detached inner edge)
December 1936 – Fourth year, No. 12 – 128 pages – Luxe edition "M"
December 1937 – Fifth year, No. 12 – 154 pages – luxury handwritten copy 'for Monsieur Georges Tétard'.
Features :
Large in-folio format (approx. 30 × 24 cm)
Very high-quality impression on thick paper.
Numerous colorful illustrated pharmaceutical advertisements, typical of Art Deco aesthetics: Pancrepar, Septicémine, Vitacrine, Thiodacaïne, Panvita, etc.
Modernist illustrations, graphic compositions, and exceptional typography.
Limited editions not intended for public distribution.
State:
Overall in very good condition (fresh pages, clean cover, rare signs of aging).
A volume (May 1936) shows a slight interior separation without missing pages.
Total weight: about 8 kg.
Interest
Rare and homogeneous collection, representing a perfect synthesis of French advertising and medical graphics from the 1930s.
The provenance (Georges Tétard) enhances its appeal to collectors of Art Deco, advertising history, or French design.
Provenance
Printed or handwritten mention 'For Monsieur Georges Tétard' on each volume.
