CHATENAY (Edmond).
The Wild Duck.
Paris: Edmond Chatenay, 1903. - 31 deliveries in-4, stapled, in a shirt with flaps, with blue imitation leather back and modern case.

Rare complete collection of this satirical and literary journal created by Joseph Werner, under the pseudonym of Edmond Chatenay. 

It was a weekly newspaper of about twenty pages, anti-clerical, anti-militarist and libertarian. The first issue appeared on 21 March 1903 and the last on 18 October of the same year. Among the main editors were Alfred Jarry, Jules Renard, who had the theater section, and Charles-Louis Philippe. But there were also the names of Anatole France, Franc-Nohain, Octave Mirbeau, Ernest La Jeunesse, Pierre Soulaine, Paul Acker, Pierre Quillard and others.

Illustration occupied an important place in this publication, it was the work of renowned artists such as Willette, Eugène Carrière, Roubille, Hermann-Paul, Steinlen, Félix Vallotton, Pierre Bonnard, Paul Iribe, Cappiello, Caran d'ache, Sem, Lucien Pissarro, Louis Morin, Abel Faivre, George Delaw, Galartara, Kupka, Poulbot, etc.

The fascicle copy is very well preserved overall despite some freckles and a few rare loose covers. It is enriched with a rare cover that reproduces the cover of the first issue with Willette's illustration, indicating above the title: "60 drawings - 1st issue - 0 fr. 75". We have found no other trace of this cover, it could be an essay before the launch of the magazine. It has freckles and tears on the back. Number 20 has been restored on the back with an adhesive.
