= Stols, Bibl. Boutens p.21; Rijkse 2.167. First edition of the author's first publication in bookform, published without his knowledge by P.C. Boutens. "Ingewijden weten hoe in 1912 de eerste uitgaaf van de "Verzen" van J.H. Leopold door Boutens werd "uitgegeven". Zij kwam in September 1912 van de persen van Eduard Verbeke en geleek uiterlijk weer sterk op de "Poems by Lord Alfred Douglas", al had de drukker ditmaal kennelijk beter zijn best gedaan. Leopold wilde in dien tijd van bundelen niets weten en nam het Boutens dan ook kwalijk, dat hij de verzen slechts met een korte inleiding en zonder verder commentaar had overgenomen uit "De Nieuwe Gids" (...). Boutens' uitgave, welke Leopold qua tekst zeer gebrekkig vond, is er gelukkig de aanleiding toe geworden, dat de dichter nu zelf de uitgave zijner "Verzen" ter hand ging nemen." (Stols, P.C. Boutens als uitgever, p.9). Very rare, especially in its orig. full vellum binding.

Monod 11336; Strachan, The Artist and the Book in France, p.76-78; The Artist & the Book 1860-1960, no.172: "As early as 1908, Count Kessler, the director of the Cranach Presse, was attracted to Maillol's sculpture and invited the artist to go with him to Greece, where the Virgil project was conceived. Begun in 1912, it was delayed by the war. A classical spirit pervades the finished volume, form the harmonious composition of the type to the slightly archaic grace of the figures."

80 1947 Masson A Maurois A 
= This copy printed for Marcel Thomasset. Monod 7963; Cramer 47. "Parodiant Jonathan Swift (...) André Maurois composa une fantaisie d'un pays gullivérien où la race, sur l'habitat de laquelle un couple est abandonné, est mue par la soif plutôt que par la faim sexuelle (...). Maurois a suggéré à Masson un thème doublement érotique. Non seulement les illustrations de Masson renferment une certaine dose d'humour, abstraction faite du portrait de l'auteur qui sert d'introduction, mais encore leur sensualité, particulièrement dans les couleurs, est rarement égalée même dans l'oeuvre de Masson."
