[Scotland] The Black Indies by Jules Verne. Illustrations by Férat. Paris, Bibliothèque d'Éducation et de Récréation, J. Hetzel et Cie, sd (1877). Large single in-8°. Publisher's full carmine red percaline "à la grenade". Plate signed A. Souze and binding by Lenègre. Blue endpapers. Printed by Gauthier-Villars. First illustrated edition and first concomitant binding with the one "aux initiales JV-JH". Some foxing. Otherwise, a very nice copy "nature", never passed through the hands of a restorer as it is often the case. This title is unknown to Jauzac in single volume! That's all to say... See also lot n°86. A very nice copy.
