Très bel exemplaire surRives pur chiffon àla forme, tel que paru, de l’édition originale de ce livre hommage de Jean Cocteau àson ami Picasso. Les textes de recueil publié à l’occasion du 80ème anniversaire de Picasso, tous signés par Cocteau, ont été réunis à l’initiative de son éditeur, Pierre Bertrand. Il débute par une touchante préface de Cocteau : « trente années d’échanges n’ont pu diminuer le respect que je te porte et la crainte que j’éprouve lorsque je pense que mon travail affrontera ton œil Perce-Neige. Aussi ne faut-il pas, indique-t-il, chercher dans ce livre la moindre parole de juge, mais le simple témoignage d’un ami ». Goeppert-Cramer, Picasso, n° 117.

In-4 (373 x 275 mm). 24 lithographies originales de Picasso sur papier report, dont une pour la couverture, une en frontispice et deux à double page. Un des 199 exemplaires sur Rives pur chiffon à la forme, celui-ci le n°145, signé au crayon par Cocteau et Picasso. En feuilles, sous couverture de papier carton remplié, illustrée d’une lithographie de Picasso, imprimée en gris et vert et découpée en forme d’un profil de tête avec le titre imprimé sur une feuille de papier vélin sur le front. Chemise et étui de l’éditeur (piqûres à 2 feuillets de texte, légers frottements à la chemise et l’étui).
