Balzac DROLL STORIES Gustave Doré Illustrated Antique 1900 Bibliophilist Society

Droll Stories by Honoré de Balzac, illustrated by Gustave Doré. Published circa 1900 by The Bibliophilist Society, this substantial volume is prized for Doré’s dramatic wood engravings, which rank among his most expressive narrative work. This copy is complete with illustrations, printed on heavy laid paper, and presents very well internally. The book has been professionally re-covered in later cloth boards; original binding is no longer present. Text block remains solid, plates are clean, and the volume is entirely usable and display-worthy. A desirable illustrated Balzac edition, collected primarily for Doré’s artwork. An excellent opportunity to acquire a Doré-illustrated literary classic at a fraction of original-binding prices. Carefully packed and shipped.
