25,6 x 16,6cm, 80pp. Original wrappers. First edition of this the surrealist's first book which in the trade edition was illustrated by Max Jacob with four original b/w drawings hors texte.

This is a hors commerce example, unnumbered but on a special Madagascar paper reserved only for reviewers and friends of the artist (the rest of the edition consisted of 5 examples on japon, 15 on hollande copies and 150 on velin d'arches).

Additionally there is a exceptional full page (humorous and very friendly) relatively long, hand-written dedication to the early surrealist gallerist Pierre Colle (who was the person who first exhibited Dali as a solo artist - and for that matter, Tanguy....). Also found here is also a small Hugnet drawing of a head which he has entitled a "portrait de l'emmerde de la preface no 2" which is signed and dated 5 june 1928. A very good example.

Obviously unique and a wonderful association copy.

Three separate issues. Uniformly, 22.5 x 18.5 cm. Pagination varies per. A group of this (very rare) important avant-garde periodical of the twenties to which all the major French avant-garde authors, artists and composers contributed. Directed by Marcel Raval with his editor and secretary Mayr, the periodical was typographically experimental.
Throughout the second series of the revue there are numerous hors-texte plates and the occasional musical-score (as an important concern of the journal was contemporary music here with texts by Satie).
There are illustrations (including many unpublished drawings) and iterary contributions include Tzara, Cocteau, Artaud, Eluard, Crevel, Jacob, Larbaud, Cendrars, etc.
There are some condition flaws here with (as usual all wrappers are a bit browned and grubby and edge worn due to the slightly oversized covers). All internal pages on all are very good and most quite bright. Occasionally a few pages are foxed and browned. However, despite these noted concerns, all numbers of this journal are scarce and sought after.
