Sorry, we could not translate this listing to English.

Vintage here is an old book "vocabulary and spelling method" elementary course from the Hachette bookstore dating from the 20s or 30s.
This is the fifth edition: it is undated.
This little hardback book, with half a green sheepskin, was written by Gustave Gabet (public school teacher) & Georges Gillard (Primary inspector).
This is a new reading method (reading, writing, spelling) with childish drawings. The color illustrations were created by Raoul de Nézière based on the watercolors of Ferdinand Raffin.
This book, worth 6 francs 80 (at the time), has its purple wool bookmark created by the schoolgirl to whom it belonged and whose name is marked on the first page: Zette (Suzette) Bousquet.

Collector, nostalgic for a certain era or simply to decorate, this book is a treasure...The graphics and calligraphy are superb.

Bibliophilia is the “wise” love of all books, a love that has existed since the book and its ancestors existed. This passion is often defined by the very character of its subjects: bibliophiles. Which postpones and causes the very meaning of bibliophilia to be derived – often poorly defined, often difficult to define. The bibliophile is a book lover who is often proud of his library and his collection; a scholar who owns many books, on the other hand, is not necessarily a bibliophile.
France itself has largely contributed to the history of bibliophily; it is often even considered as one of the leading countries in the field
