GONCOURT (Edmond and Jules). Theater. Henriette Maréchal. La Patrie en danger. Paris : G. Charpentier, 1879. - In-12, percaline bleue à la Bradel, smooth spine, untrimmed, front cover preserved (Henry-Joseph). First collective edition of the Goncourt theater. A precious copy from Edmond de Goncourt, intended for corrections. It bears on the first endpaper this autograph indication in red ink: "Exemplaire pour correction // E. de Goncourt" and on the cover this other autograph note: "Exemplaire de l'auteur." It includes only very few corrections (pp. 76, 110, 124, 126, 127, 129, 135) and lacks Edmond Goncourt's preface. A good copy in Pierson binding. Front cover alone preserved, browned and torn with missing lower edge. Some scattered foxing. Enclosed, by Edmond de Goncourt: - La Saint-Huberty d'après sa correspondance et ses papiers de famille. Paris: E. Dentu, 1882. - In-12, ochre percaline à la Bradel, smooth spine, untrimmed, cover preserved (E. Carayon). First edition illustrated with a frontispiece designed and engraved by Adolphe Lalauze, a chapter heading and a cul-de-lampe, etched by Henriot. The text is further decorated with frames designed by Pallandre and engraved by Méaulle. ONE OF 25 EXEMPLIES ON CHIN, including two states of the frontispiece and a facsimile of a letter from Madame Saint-Huberty, bound at the end. Soiling to binding and cover. Some scattered foxing.
