Privat d'Anglemont, a Bohemian journalist, "devoted many articles to the Paris of small trades and rare industries [...], which appeared in newspapers, particularly Le Siècle, and were collected in two volumes: Paris anecdote (1854) and Paris inconnu (1861) [...]. Privat d'Anglemont explored Paris by night with the same spirit of adventure, the same appetite for discovery that one might feel for more distant lands." (Jean-Pierre A.

Lacombe, no. 1144; Van Tieghem, p. 4071. "Genuine first edition (and only edition in this format) of this famous work which, as we still remember, caused such a stir in Paris when it first appeared.

Louis Veuillot often painted his characters under assumed names. We find Passionnard d'Auvergne (Jules Vallès), Eliassin Lupus (Albert Wolff), Amanda Pigeonnier (Marie Colombier), Passe-Partout (Adrien Marx), Lilia (George Sand) [...]."
