[Printer's proofs] Hervé-Bazin, La tête contre les murs. - Lot 459
[Printer's proofs] Hervé-Bazin, La tête contre les murs. First proofs of his novel published in 1949. They take the form of 26 double-sided sheets, each forming two plates (51 in all), with pages already composed but not yet placed for printing. The whole is covered by a cardboard sheet inscribed by Bazin: "La tête contre les murs / Epreuves 1 / Hervé Bazin". The corrections are numerous, probably more than 200. The majority are typographical, but a large proportion are word changes, deletions or additions. The most significant changes are to plates 17, 28, 31 and 45. A very fine document.
