Paris, Manuel Bruker, 1958. In-4, loose-leaf, printed cover. Illustrated with 8 original lithographs in black and colour, printed by Mourlot.

First edition illustrated with 9 compositions by Gus Bofa. Printed in a run of 200 copies. The book contains a long, very personal letter from Manuel Bruker to his friend Jacques Guignard, in which he recounts the misfortunes that have befallen him. He first tragically lost his daughter, and his immense grief shows no sign of abating. Then a careless driver knocked him down and he had to spend two months in a plaster cast… Mendel Brucker (1891–1979), known as Manuel Bruker, was born in Radautz (then part of Austria-Hungary, later Romania) and was a French painter, collector and art publisher. He founded his publishing house in 1926 and published nearly eighty books illustrated by artists. Between 1931 and 1963, he produced 46 *Éloges et Portraits d’artistes*. Experts: Loup Axmann and Jean-Luc Boisseau
