Mongan, Kornfeld and Joachim nr 1. Good impression on simili japan paper, to the second edition, published by A. Vollard after 1900. Many short marginal tears along the left edge and at top; handling creases mostly marginal. Wide margins. First plate forming cover to the set of ten “dessins lithographiques”, 1889. The impression of the first edition are very rare. The edition for the second is announced around 50 impressions, probably a bit more.
