This edition was presumably that issued by J. C. Hotten (see Ashbee, vol. I, p. 12).

In the present edition, pp. (41) 150 contain a supplement of additional material. P.C. 31.g.4

Page 278 PERRY, JAMES

This translation of Confession galante forms vol. iii in the series Bibliothèque français which Smithers issued. The other volumes were Perret's Tableaux vivants and Opus Sadicum, a dreadful translation of Sade's Justine first published by Liseux at Paris in 1889 and here reissued with a new titlepage. The fact that Smithers limited his advertised edition of Opus Sadicum to only so copies, as opposed to a limitation of 250 copies in the case of the other two books, suggests that he came into possession of a small number of Liseux's remainder stock. A different translation of this work entitled 'Voluptous confessions of a French Lady of fashion,' will be found serialised in the pages of The Boudoir, q.v. ante.

1430. "TABLEAUX VIVANTS (Les)," ou Mes Confessions aux pieds dc la duchesse.

(Brussels, Auguste Poulet-Malassis?) 12mo. pp. 166. Die-stamped onto the lower corner of the recto of rear free endpaper is: 'Sold by E. Avery, London.' Author's name appears nowhere on the book itself, but see G. Legman, "The Horn Book", page 68. (5 January "1886.) P.C. 27.a.17.

1431. Tableaux Vivants." Completely Translated from the original French by a Member of the Council. Annotated. Athens: Imprinted by the Erotika Biblion Society for Private Distribution Only, 1888.

PETITES ALLIÉES 279

from M. Maurice Girodias dated January 8th, 1979. 'Soliman Peters' sold his Ms to the Olympia Press for a straight fee and was not given a contract since it was the policy of M. Girodias, publisher of the Olympia Press, to issue contracts only to those authors whose books he considered legitimate and defendable and who didn't employ pseudonyms. At the same time the MS was also sold to a rival of M. Girodias, one Bruno Durocher, otherwise known as Kaminsky, who had a small printing business on rue Séguier, Paris. Both editions came out more or less simultaneously but in the case of Kaminsky's edition, which was presumably that issued under the impress of 'Week End Books' above, it was published with a contract thus making it impossible for M. Girodias to take legal action defending his own edition. To save the situation, the book was withdrawn and issued again with a new title and pseudonym and a rewritten opening page of text. This version was entitled "Springtime in Paris" by 'Theobald Lovelace', a copy of which will be found entered under that pseudonym, ante. (30 January 1964.) P.C. 14.g.38.
