Bindings by Éditeur de L’Illustration – Complete year 1931 in 3 volumes.
A famous weekly that marked the history of the French press.

Books in very good overall condition. Some rubbing traces are visible on the edges and covers of the bindings. The gilding and markings on the boards and edges are somewhat worn. The interiors of the volumes are in very good condition. Probably never read. Some pages may be stuck together with time but separate very easily without any impact on the condition of the pages.
