This is Sonnailles et Clochettes (Cowbells and Bells) -- poetry by Theodore de Banville. Published by G. Charpentier et cie in 1890. Text is in French. Bound in beautiful, half-leather binding with marbled boards. This would be a great addition to your collection or as a gift to anyone who loves France or the French language.

Please see photos for more on contents and condition.

There's an inscription on flyleaf, and small pencil notes on title page and a few other pages. Blank page has a small chipped edge. Deckled pages are otherwise clean. Pages are toned. Binding is tight and square. Attractive half leather hardcovers have some edge and surface wear but otherwise present very nicely. 


Thanks for looking !
