Binding III
No.10, with illustrations by Hermann-Paul, Pierre-Louis Moreau, Fernand-Louis Gottlob, Théophile Steinlen, Paul Jouve, Eugène Cadel, Gustave-Henri Jossot, Pierre-Georges Jeanniot, Charles Huard, Jules Hénault, Jacques Villon. Very good condition
No.11, with illustrations by Arthur C. Michael, Ch. Nitsch, Cadel, Steinlen, Hermann-Paul, Huard, Noël Dorville, Jossot, Louis Malteste, Hénault, Hermann Vogel, Jeanniot. Split at top of spine, otherwise very good
No.12, with illustrations by Adolphe Willette, Dorville, Kees van Dongen, Hermann-Paul, Tomás Leal da Câmara, Jossot, Xavier Gosé, Gil Baer, Leteur, Charles Léandre, Coussens, Huard, Jeanniot. Splits at top and bottom of spine, otherwise very good.
No.13, with illustrations by Steinlen, Michael, Vogel, Jehan Testevuide, Emmanuel Barcet, Leal da Câmara, Jouve, Jossot, Georges d'Ostoya, Villon, Francisco Sancha. Very good condition.
The magazines are held loosely in a limp purple folder with plain endpapers, the folder with gilt title and design on the front cover, and stamped ‘Imp. Kapp Paris’ in gilt on the rear cover. Damage and loss to the lower spine.
Binding IV
No.14, with 13 illustrations by Hermann-Paul. Several loose pages, otherwise good.
No.15, with 14 illustrations by Steinlen. Very good
No.16, with illustrations by Cadel, Hénault, Camille Lefèvre, Vogel, Villon, Jacques Zagnoli, Hermann-Paul, Jeanniot, Jossot, Léopold Braun, Huard, Malteste. Very good
No. 17, with 13 illustrations by Auguste Roubille, all in colour. Very good
The magazines are attached to a limp charcoal grey folder with plain endpapers, the folder with gilt title and design on the front cover, and stamped ‘Imp. Kapp Paris’ in gilt on the rear cover. Slight damage and loss at top and bottom of the folder spine.
A number of the illustrations in both folders are double-page spreads. Some of the magazines have age-toning to the paper and ragged page edges, but little damage and no spotting to the pages, and the illustrations are all in bright clean condition.
L'Assiette au Beurre was a French satirical weekly magazine which had its heyday from 1901 to 1912. It had a socialist, anti-clerical and sometimes anarchist viewpoint and consisted of captioned cartoons and little or no other text or advertisements. Each issue has about 16 pages filled with colour and b/w illustrations.
