76 1476 Manessier A Péguy C 
- Box trifle soiled and sl. splitting at spine-ends. Otherwise very fine.
= One of 49 copies "réservés pour la création de l'Association Les Amateurs de livres illustrés modernes"; this copy on the name of Monsieur Jose Ma. Bereciarte. Monod 8931; Strachan, The Artist and the Book in France, p.198: "A Manessier livre manuscrit, the artist's lithographic transcription in multi-coloured roman capitals of the poet Péguy's Présentation de la Beauce à Notre-Dame de Chartres with in- and hors-texte colour lithographs, is conceived in the spirit of controlled exuberance. Liberated from typographical considerations, Manessier has imposed a discipline of his own on the whole lage format, Italian style page. This has enabled him to produce some exciting, asymmetrical designs on the buff-toned paper. His use of calligraphic (brush) flourishes (...) links him with Zao-Wouki and with the artist-poet Henri Michaux. The original pages, 42x64 cm., allow the artist space to provide generous margins for his colourful creations. (...) the effect is of incomparable richness, typical of the livres d'artiste that have emanated form Madame Léal's commissions for the Bibliophiles de l'Union Française."
