Description
[Jules Verne]. Bulletin de la Société Jules Verne. Numbers 1 - 9. Paris: Siège Social, 1935-1937. Octavo. Illustrations. In French. Nine pamphlets in pictorial wrappers. Very good. These are the first nine issues of this important quarterly which -- according to Jules Verne: a Primary and Secondary Bibliography (Gallagher, et al.) -- ran to 13 issues. From the Jerry Weist Collection.More Information:
"The Société - the the first official 'club of learned armatures' devoted to Jules Verne - published in its Bulletin many articles on Verne's life and works, excepts from Verne's correspondence, various eye-witness testimonies, and accounts on his literary status in other countries. In doing so, the Bulletin de la Société Jules Verne kept alive the flame of Vernian scholarship during an otherwise lean period" (Smyth). Gallagher, pp. 145-174. Edmund J. Smyth, Jules Verne; Narratives of Modernity, p. 24.
