Description from the seller
Beautiful illustrated edition by Jacques Touchet of the play by Jules Romains, first performed in Paris at the Comédie des Champs-Élysées on December 15, 1923.
The illustration includes more than 70 humorous stencil-colored drawings. The cover is also illustrated.
Limited to 2,000 copies. One of the 1,590 numbered on Johannot pure cotton vellum, this one is No. 1857.
Pages, under a colored embossed illustrated cover and a double casing (cover + slipcase).

Bitter comedy, Knock denounces manipulation, whether it concerns medicine or any ideology, just as with any business.
