As new condition throughout. The exuberant illustrations in this edition are the work of the noted English artist, Frank C Pape. They originally appeared in a two-volume limited edition of The Complete Works of Doctor Francois Rabelais published in London in 1927. . The Franklin Library designed and bound books with unsurpassed skill in achieving a premium-quality product: each is 'a wonder', in the finest traditions of bookbinding.

We see many dealers' listings giving incorrect or ambiguous information (or none), so advise Franklin Library collectors to take care. There's a guide to Franklin Library editions and their identification on our blog. Pape, Frank C (illustratore).…
