Havana morocco, boards richly decorated with gilt roulette on the edges, framed by a wide band of dark green morocco decorated with gilt repetition decoration of circles and lozenges linked by a fillet, cut at the corners by a gilt quatrefoil on a piece of red morocco, bordered on the outside by a small gilt fleur-de-lys at the corners, and on the inside a gilt fillet lobed at the corners with a spandrel in light green morocco adorned with gilt scrolls, the first plate also featuring a beautiful gilt rosette in the center, ribbed spine adorned on each box with a quatrefoil in dark green morocco surrounded by gilt scrolls, interior gilt roulette, gilt edges (late 19th-century binding). Bertin, no. 106. Partly original edition, the first complete, so-called "Keepsake Edition", including three previously unpublished chapters that had been lost. Printed in an edition of 2,000 copies, it went on sale as a New Year's book on December 5, 1835. Very fine first-edition illustration, comprising a frontispiece and 11 plates on China paper, steel-engraved by Edward and William Finden, Robert Staines, Gabriel-Louis Lacour-Lestudier, G. Périam, T. Philibrocon after Adolphe Rouargue, Tony and Alfred Johannot, Louis Boulanger, Camille Rogier and Auguste Raffet. The plate entitled Utilité des fenêtres qui donnent sur la rivière (Utility of windows overlooking the river) was not ready in time and, as always, is printed on wove paper. ONE OF THE VERY RARE EXAMPLES ON FINE VELIN PAPER, in a superb later mosaic binding, enriched with 5 wood-engraved vignettes after Tony Johannot, glued and mounted on strong vellum paper. Slight rubbing to nerves.
