Guillaume Apollinaire // Le Poète Assassiné

French limited numbered edition, one of 1 040 on Alfa Navarre paper, ours bearing the number 421.  

In a Paul Bonet binding design. 

This copy was previously owned by the American author and literary critic John Ivan Simon (1925–2019), with his name penned in the upper fore-corner of the front endpaper—similar to the inscription in our offering of “Alcools” by Apollinaire, which is part of the same collection and binding. If you are interested in purchasing both books, please contact us. 

Leaves gently toned, spine insolated, darkening to end papers and dust-staining to edges of text-block; Moderate edgewear to toned boards, with some scuffing to fore-corners of panels and spine ends. In very good condition otherwise.
