Louise Imogen Guiney letter, 1892.

The letter in this collection was written from Auburndale, Massachusetts to Paul Lemperly, presumably soon after the publication of Monsieur Henri in 1892, and is dated August 20. Guiney tells him, "I am afraid that the Monsieur Henri books, ordinary 12 mo. but bound in Chollet plaid, are by now, absolutely unobtainable. There were but fifty of them." Guiney is apparently describing a privately printed run of the book. The Harper & Brothers trade edition (DC218.2 G9) is bound in dark green cloth with a gilt coat of arms on the front cover and two gilt fleur-de-lis on the spine, lettered in gilt.
