BAUDELAIRE (Ch.). LES FLEURS DU MAL. - Lot 248

BAUDELAIRE (Ch.). LES FLEURS DU MAL. Paris, Poulet-Malassis et de Broise, 1857. In-8 (190 x 125 mm), bradel half anthracite morocco with small corners, t. gilt (modern binding). First edition and fourth state (?) with the correction on p. 12 ("s'embardissent" corrected during printing to "s'embardissant"). However, the following errors are also noted: on p. 31 and p. 108, the running title Les Fleurs du Mal is printed as Les Feurs du Mal; on p. 201, the word capiteux is erroneously printed as captieux; p. 45 is numbered 44. This copy does not include the 6 pieces ordered to be suppressed. This copy has all the characteristics of the "completed copies" precisely described in Carteret. (Clouzot, 43) (Carteret I, 118-121) A copy with large margins, the false title carefully restored; the binding signed Véronique Sala-Vidal is finely executed.
