Poetry by Victor Hugo. Illustrations by J.-A. Beaucé, Eustache Lorsay & Gérard Séguin. Paris, J. Hetzel, Libraire-Éditeur, sd (1868).
Large in-8°. Customized full orange percaline publisher's cardboard. Spine of type "Geography of France". 2nd plate with frames and cold macaron. Binding not signed (Magnier). Gilded edges. Beige-mauve velvety endpapers. Printed by Bonaventure. Collection of issues bearing, on the false-title, the mention "Première partie".
First illustrated edition of this version and first hardback.
Small light spotting on the 1st plate. Another one on the 2nd plate, more important, reaching the spine. Otherwise, a very decent copy in an exceptional color. This hardback edition, really of any rarity (!), contains Odes et ballades, Les Orientales, Les Feuilles d'automne, Les Chants du crépuscule, Les Voix intérieures and Les Rayons & les ombres.
