Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: near fine. Böhmer, Gunter (illustrator). Limited Edition. One of 1500 copies, large octavo size, 486 pp., signed by the illustrator, with Monthly Letter and Announcement. French writer Guy de Maupassant (1850-1893) is best known for his short stories written in a naturalist style. This volume presents forty-nine of approximately 250 that Maupassant wrote during his lifetime; of the forty-nine, over half of them (twenty-six) were translated by the also well-known author, Lafcadio Hearn. Complementing the text are thirty-two illustrations reproduced by means of lithography from watercolours (seventeen full-page) by Gunter Böhmer of Switzerland, who signed the volume at the colophon. This volume as complete as one can hope for: in addition to the book itself and the publisher's slipcase, the previous owner retained the original glassine wrapper, the Monthly Letter, and the seldom-seen Announcement. ___DESCRIPTION: Bound in full light blue cloth over bevelled boards, gilt lettering on a mounted brown cloth label and gilt decorated borders on the front board and spine, top edge stained brown, frontispiece one of the full-page illustrations by Gunter Böhmer, title page in blue and black; monotype Plantin on Abbey Mills paper, large octavo size (9 5/8" by 7"), pagination: [i-vii] viii-xii [1-3] 4-472 [1, blank] [1, colophon], one of 1500 copies, this number 351, signed by Gunter Böhmer at the colophon.
