Jacques Prévert - Histoires et d’autres histoires [ex. de tête 1/85 num. sur vélin] - 1963

Partially original edition, augmented with poems appearing here for the first time.

Rare head impression, one of the first 85 on Arches Arjomari vellum, before the 4100 on Alfa Calypso; numbered 10.

Paperback, printed cover, and case.

Very beautiful specimen, light scuffs on the tips and crowns. Case and interior impeccable. In excellent condition.

First published in 1946, the same year as 'Paroles,' and then enriched, these stories told with wit, mockery, and tenderness by the poet blend verve and sap, verbal pirouettes and social critique.
