Baudelaire (Charles) Les Fleurs du Mal second edition half-title etched portrait by Félix Bracquemond tissue guard added at end oval albumen photographic portrait of Baudelaire mounted on a card f. and 40 pp. of additional material in manuscript some spotting and marking library blind-stamps on first few ff. and occasionally elsewhere small ink stamp on title verso library bookplate of Leeds Public Libraries stamped `duplicate sold` registration slips tipped in after title and on rear pastedown bibliographical note on verso of old front endpaper few pencil notes and little pencil scoring library binding of blue morocco-backed cloth little rubbed binders` stamp of Cedric Chivers Aug 1938 on rear pastedown 8vo Paris Poulet-Malassis & De Broise 1861. *** The additional material consists of the 6 suppressed poems of the first edition 10 further `Poésies nouvelles et inédites` (some with publishing details in various literary magazines up to 1864 added) and 2 prose pieces `Révolte...Epigraphe au chapitre Revolte 1re edition supprimée a la seconde` and on different paper the withdrawn original long dedication to Theophile Gautier signed `Charles Baudelaire` and probably in his hand. This version was first published as a facsimile plate in Le Parnasse Satyrique (Brussels 1864) on one folio sheet whereas in this copy it is on two 8vo pp. The two versions are otherwise virtually identical including corrections and underlinings of words and letters. The other manuscript material seems to be in other hands and together the volume forms a complete collection of all Baudelaire`s poetry available up to 1864 perhaps prepared by Baudelaire himself or his publisher Poulet-Malassis.
