Description from the seller

Beautiful set of two illustrated works by Uncle Hansi, published by H. Floury (Paris):
The History of Alsace told to young children of Alsace and France (1915).
Illustrated edition with many color images by Hansi and Huen. The title page and frontispieces are highly decorative, typical of Hansi's graphic universe, celebrating Alsace and regional popular culture.
Happy Alsace (H. Floury edition).
Color illustrations by Hansi. In the same stylistic vein, celebrating the region and its folklore through numerous humorous and patriotic drawings.
Condition: period copies in reasonable condition. Illustrated cardboard bindings, rubbed and with some small stains; slightly rounded corners; clean interiors; some sporadic foxing without major impact on the plates. Solid books, with no missing pages according to the photos. The colors remain vivid and well preserved.
A sought-after collection of enthusiasts of Hansi and Alsatian illustrated books from the Belle Époque.
