GRANDVILLE, J.J. (1803-1847). Carte Vivante du Restaurateur . [Paris: Aubert, Galerie Vero Dodat, ca 1830-1835). 2 o (280 x 365 mm). 12 hand-colored engraved plates. (Some light marginal spotting.) Loose as issued in early blue paper wrapper; modern quarter morocco folding case. Provenance : F.F. Hofbibliothek (stamp on verso of each plate). FIRST EDITION of this rare set of plates by Grandville. Each of the 12 numbered plates depicts different characters dining.
