NEWSoftcover, 240 x 190 mm, green velvet paper French flapped wrappers with a silver vignette of Rops’ sphynx, in half of double-slipcase, pp. [1-8] 9-76 [8], i.e. 42 leaves plus 20 hand-coloured soft-ground etchings, incl. frontispiece, attributed to Louis Berthomme Saint-André. Text and plates printed on thick wove paper watermarked Arches, margines untrimmed; anonymous woodcut head- and tailpieces. Enhanced by a complete set of plates, uncoloured, in green velvet paper folder, gilt inside. Pibrac (or Pybrac) by Pierre Louÿs is "composed of 313 rhymed Alexandrine quatrains, the majority of them starting with the phrase I do not like to see. Pybrac is in the form a mockery of sixteenth-century chancellor poet Guy Du Faur, seigneur de Pibrac (French, 1528-1584), whose moralizing quatrains were the common literary fare for young French readers until the nineteenth century".

Title-page (red and black): PAUL MORAND | LES PLAISIRS | RHENANS | orné de sept lithographies originales | et coloriées à la main | DUSSELDORF | Librairie Leocadia || The front wrapper is the same, in black only. Limitation: Cette édition, imprimée pour une Société de Bibliophiles, a été tirée à 107 exemplaires hors commerce, savoir: exemplaires sur vieux japon, numérotés de 1 à 7, et 100 exemplaires sur vélin d'Arches, numérotés de 8 à 107. Les lithographies ont été tirées sur presse à bras et coloriées à la main. Les pierres ont été poncées après tirage. Exemplaire N° 81. [The edition was printed for a bibliophile society in 107 non-commercial copies: 7 copies on “vieux Japon” paper, numbered from 1 to 7, and 100 copies on “Arches Vellum”, numbered from 8 to 107, of which this is copy № 81]. An unauthorized (pirated) edition of two short stories by Paul Morand, initially published in “L’Europe galante” by Éditions Grasset in 1925: Les plaisirs rhénans and Éloge de la marquise de Beausemblant; illustrated with 7 lithographs coloured with crayons after Gaston-Louis Roux, printed by Mme Duchatel; the stones were then destroyed (sanded). According to Pia: « Pour le principe, semble-t-il, Bernard Grasset à qui aucune autorisation d’éditer ainsi ces deux nouvelles n'avait été demandée, déposa une plainte contre X... en contrefaçon. L'enquête judiciaire, si enquête il y eut, n’aboutit pas. Le tirage de l’édition « pirate » avait été si restreint que tous les exemplaires en avaient été vendus sitôt parus. Le coupable, en l’occurrence René Bonnel, ne fut pas inquiété ». Dutel attests: « Un des personnages, subissant une agréable fellation, représenté sur l'une des lithographies, ressemble fort à Paul Morand qui en avait pris ombrage! » Comment by the seller: L’ouvrage est d’autant plus rare que Morand lui-même, mécontent d’une des gravures qui le représente en position intéressante, fit détruire une partie des exemplaires. Resume: While Bernard Grasset opposed the pirated edition on copyright infringement grounds, Paul Morand was enraged by his resemblance to the depicted character; the latter destroyed as many copies of the edition as he could, so only a few still exist. The print run of the "pirate" edition was so limited that all the copies were sold as soon as they were published. Catalogue Raisonné: Dutel III № 2215 (p. 321) ; Pia : № 1056; Nordmann (I) № 281.
