Charles Robert-Dumas ; Maurice Lalau pour les Contes...

Lot of three illustrated collections by Charles Robert-Dumas: Rosy Tales from My Grandmother (1932), Blue Tales from My Grandmother (1949) and Green Tales from My Grandmother (1951), published by Boivin. Each volume retains its color-illustrated hard cover. The set brings together drawings by Maurice Lalau, Henry Morin and Maurice Berty, offering three graphic interpretations of the same collection of tales. The Blue Tales include a prefatory letter by Émile Faguet. These works belong to children’s literature and the realm of marvelous fantasy. The pairing of the three titles will interest fans of illustrated tales and publisher’s bindings. Used condition, with wear to edges and corners, some marks on the covers, yellowing of the paper and foxing, notably in the blue and green volumes. See photographs for details of preservation.
