MARIANI (Angelo) Contes à Mariani, Paris, 1902. - 10 works in one volume, in-4, publisher's illustrated pink cloth. First edition of the complete collection of 10 tales commissioned by chemist and pharmacist Angelo Mariani (1838-1914) from the literati and illustrators in vogue at the time, each printed in 500 copies. Each publication had a print run of 500 copies, and this edition brings together the ten tales as they appeared, in original and deluxe editions - in-4 format - with their covers. A false title with justification, a title, a table of tales and two frontispieces drawn and etched by Albert ROBIDA have been specially made. These leaves and plates are here on japon. The justification mentions 50 japon papers, specifying: "Several are out of print, the others in very rare numbers", and 450 on wove paper, with this precision: "The first published volumes are out of print".
