163 - VERNE (Jules). Five weeks in a balloon. Paris, J. Hetz - Lot 163

An exceptional collection assembled by a Jules Verne enthusiast over several decades, comprising more than 200 Hetzel cartonnages in fine condition, including some uncommon copies, will be dispersed in a single sale on this occasion.

Dear Jules Verne enthusiasts,

We have taken care to describe the condition of the works presented as accurately as possible.

Nevertheless, given the quantity, we may have overlooked a few minor defects.

The remarkable number of volumes in this collection, which for the first time is leaving the shelves of a library patiently assembled over several decades, undoubtedly merits a trip to Bordeaux to hold in your hands the volumes you wish to bid on.

If this is not possible, we would be grateful if you would only bid for any minor defects we may have missed.

Thank you for your trust and understanding,

The experts.
