LETTRES DE GUERRE. 1919.

Paris: Au Sans Pareil, 1919

20 x 14cm cloth,covered boards – a period binding – content of the first edition of this keywork in the pre-history of surrealism, edited and with an introduction by Andre Breton. Original wrappers are retained. These letters, written during the war to Breton, T. Fraenkel and Louis Aragon, and gathered here for the first time constitute virtually all of Vache’s literary output (a short story and a poem having been added to a later edition of the present work). The original wrappers have one small rub on the rear and the paper is mildly browned butstill crisp. One of 960 numbered examples (after the du tete of 10 on Japon and 30 on Hollande). Adverts for the Dada publication Litterature at the back of the book. VG+.
