JARRY, Alfred. ~ Ouverture de la Pêche. Collège de Pataphysique, [1953].
8vo (210 × 136 mm), pp. [2], 8, [4], including one monochrome illustration. Stapled in original green wrapper (of which the margins are slightly yellowed). An excellent copy.
First edition, one of 276 copies in ‘vert aqueux’ wrappers (after 57 in ‘vert de Perse). The tableau Ouverture de la Pêche was written when the author was 15 and later deemed by him worthy of publication by the Collège de Pataphysique. This piece of comic Jarry juvenilia sees families haste to catch the opening of the French fishing season.
