Description
[DALI]. GÉRARD (Max) – DALI (Salvador). DALI DE DRAEGER. [Paris], Le Soleil Noir, printed by Draeger, 1968. Large square quarto, 242–[6] pages, publisher’s illustrated cloth binding with gilt, embossed flaps. Some signs of wear to the cover with small losses; a few loose leaves. FIRST EDITION of this publication by Draeger Printers, compiled by the writer and film director Max Gérard, illustrated with 243 black-and-white and colour reproductions by Salvador DALI. Opposite the title page, a COPY ENRICHED WITH AN ORIGINAL OIL PENCIL DRAWING BY SALVADOR DALI, with an AUTOGRAPHED DEDICATION SIGNED AND DATED ‘For Carmie / Dalí 1968’. Dalí’s inscription continues onto the title page with a SHOOTING STAR AND DALÍ’S HANDWRITTEN SIGNATURE, beneath the book’s printed signature. A BEAUTIFUL SET, admirably put together. The drawing depicts a horseman holding a lance, probably Don Quixote. We have not been able to identify ‘Carmie’: perhaps it is an affectionate variant of ‘Carmen’?
