AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
- Des illustrateurs à Paris - is a unique concept for an auction catalog in the form of a card game, published in the 1990s in limited edition prints by the auctioneer Claude Boisgirard and the comic book expert Frédéric Bosser.
Instead of a book, each major sale (notably in 1993, 1995 and 1996) is given a limited edition cardboard box (mainly 800 copies) illustrated each time by a renowned illustrator (such as Benoît Jacques or Cathy Millet).

> Presence of the price in francs (probably the adjudication price) in pencil on some of the cards.
- Description of the condition of each box:
> Red box: rare presence of very light scuffs on some of the corners.
> Gray box: Slight to very slight discoloration of the paper on 3 of the corners + you can visibly see at the bottom of the box a slight excess of glue that bled or bled through during manufacture: no impact on the cards.
