RELIURE SIGNÉE DE MAURICE SALMON. Élégante reliure-objet sous forme d’une petite armoire à deux portes, avec le titre poussé à froid, découvrant une fois ouverte un décor en triptyque, réparti sur le plat supérieur d’un caisson central et les contre-plats des battants, formé d’ornements en application de feuille d'or, de bronze et d'argent ainsi que de gouache grise et bordeaux sur fond de cuir de vert bouteille. Le caisson se rabat à l’horizontale et révèle, logé au revers, dans un tiroir pivotant visible au travers d’une fenêtre de plexiglass incrustée dans le plat supérieur et ornée de 3 petites enluminures, un carnet relié de 14 pp. dont la dernière présente la justification du tirage manuscrit au crayon et signé par l’artiste. Le quart inférieur du plat est évidé de 8 découpes circulaires laissant paraître un compartiment tapissé de miroirs et permettant de lire le texte collé sur ces derniers en lettres noires. 5 des 8 découpes reçoivent des rouleaux de cuir de diverses couleurs. Fond de l’armoire en relief avec 5 miroirs en bandes verticales, à plat et de biais, et deux bandes de cuir vert bouteille. Le poème court de l'extérieur vers l'intérieur, à partir de l'objet fermé et au fur et à mesure de son déploiement jusqu'au carnet. Chemise cartonnée avec couverture de toile et rabat enveloppant, étui toilé vert.
