BAUËR (Henry). Idea and Reality. - Lot 29
BAUËR (Henry). Idea and Reality. Paris, H. Simonis Empis, 1899. First edition. The book is a collection of columns by Henry Bauër and covers the years 1894–1899, with a significant focus on the literary, political, and legal debates of the late 19th century, particularly the Dreyfus Affair. The bibliography confirms that this is a first edition of 312 pages. The colophon bears the printed notation: “COPY PRINTED FOR MR. E. Duru” The visible “printed” stamp reads: Tours, Imprimerie E. Arrault et Cie, 13-2-01. This date is worth noting because it appears to indicate a special printing subsequent to the original 1899 edition, likely related to these personalized copies. Paperback, with a beige cloth-covered jacket bearing only the name “Henry Bauër” on the front cover. The copy is untrimmed, with wide margins. The cover is dusty and discolored, with scuffing, small tears, and marginal losses, particularly at the bottom; the spine is fragile with minor defects. There are a few marginal defects on the pages, but the book is apparently complete and the interior is fairly clean.
