No. 440 of 2500 copies on papier và lin du Marais. 8vo., in an elegant signed Art-Deco binding by Lucie Meyer Edgar-Faure of terracotta red and tan morocco with a demi-circular of blue, shagreen with borders of gilt, spine with raised bands, titled in gilt, turn-ins with thick gilt onlaid border, marbled endpapers, housed in the original terracotta morocco edged, marbled paper covered slipcase. Very good. Lucie Meyer, later Edgar-Faure, (1908-1977) was from Alsace. On the guidance of her uncle, Julien Cain, she studied History of Art at the Sorbonne and then established herself as an exceptional bookbinder, showing her work at a number of exhibitions including the Salon des Independants in 1930 and the Salon du Livre d'Art in 1931 alongside Rose Adler, Louise-Denise Germain, Anita Conti, Germaine Schroeder, Marius Michel and Leon Gruel. In 1931 she also married Edgar Faure, the future President of the Council and Minister of State, after which she signed her bindings Lucie Edgar-Faure rather than Lucie Meyer, thus dating this work after 1931. Her work was very highly regarded both at home and abroad, so much so that in 1937 she was asked to bind the golden books which the City of Paris gave to the British princesses, Elizabeth and Margaret. The war ended her bookbinding life. She and her husband went to Algeria with General de Gaulle and she worked as the attache at the Foreign Affairs Commission of the National Liberations Commission. In 1943 with Robert Aron she edited the Nouvelles Editions françaises, which became the first magazine to be published in Paris after Liberation. In the 1950s she began a further literary career after the publication of her Journal d'un voyage en Chine in 1958, proceeding to publish around ten award-winning works.
