ÉDITIONS DE L'OISEAU-LYRE

LIMITED EDITIONS

 

Oiseau-Lyre's fine Limited Editions have long had a unique reputation as important collector's items. They are renowned for their special Oiseau-Lyre paper, unusually beautiful typography, splendid Grandjean and Buchardt engraving, and highly original bindings. They were mostly produced before the Second World War and are still in excellent condition; only a small number of copies remain.

 

They are offered once again to libraries wishing to complete their holdings, and to our general customers.
