Description from the seller

VERNE, JULES. — CESAR CASCABEL (PARIS, HETZEL, 1890. ORIGINAL EDITION IN ITS SPECTACULAR POLYCHROME BINDING).
Paris: J. Hetzel 1890.
Grand in-8°. Publisher's red percaline binding, the front board richly illustrated with polychrome, silvered, and gilded tooling.

Original 1890 edition of the Voyages Extraordinaires, remarkable for one of the most exuberant and colorful designs imagined by the editor Hetzel and the binder Lenègre. The front board unfolds a monumental fan highlighted with silver and gold, framing the thematic vignettes of this rocambolesque journey across the North Pacific.

A copy of remarkable freshness. The red percaline retains a splendid gloss. The front board shines in full splendor with silvered and gold parts perfectly preserved. The spine is well uniform, signed at the tail. The edges are beautifully golded. The interior is of exemplary cleanliness, complete with all color illustrations and maps.

A superb copy of this original edition.
