This attractive mixed lot captures the elegance of French publishing between the wars, with richly gilt spines, marbled papers, Art Deco-influenced illustration, and finely produced Parisian editions from noted publishers including Librairie Gründ, Calmann-Lévy, Bernard Grasset, Albin Michel, and Les Éditions de France. An ideal decorative shelf collection as well as an appealing reading library for admirers of classic French fiction and continental literary culture.\n          \u003c\/div\u003e\n          \u003cdiv\u003e\n           \u003cbr\u003e\n          \u003c\/div\u003e\n          \u003cdiv\u003e\n           Condition varies across the collection, with general age wear, rubbing, foxing, edge wear, scuffing, fading, and some deterioration to leather spines and extremities as shown. Several bindings remain especially decorative with attractive marbled boards and gilt tooling, while others display heavier wear consistent with age and handling. A wonderfully atmospheric and decorative French literary grouping with strong shelf appeal, ideal for collectors of continental literature, decorative antique bindings, French Art Deco publishing, and vintage European libraries.\"\n          \u003c\/div\u003e\n         \u003c\/div\u003e\n         \u003cdiv style=\"\"\u003e\n          \u003cbr\u003e\n         \u003c\/div\u003e\n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n       \u003c\/div\u003e\n      \u003c\/div\u003e\n     \u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n   \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n \u003c\/font\u003e\n \u003cdiv style=\"\"\u003e\n  \u003cdiv style=\"\"\u003e\n   \u003cfont rwr=\"1\" style=\"\"\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"\"\u003e\n     \u003cfont face=\"Arial\" size=\"4\"\u003e\n      General wear to covers with rubbing to corners and edges.
