First edition, a first issue copy numbered in the press; there were only 3 large paper copies on Japan and 27 on Hollande paper. Autograph inscription signed by Léon Bloy to a close friend "...ce livre d'un vieux pauvre pour agrandir les coeurs […this book from a poor old man to make hearts a little bigger]." One small insignificant stain to head of upper cover, a very good copy.
