Benjamin Rabier - Gédéon / Roudoudou / Alfred en liberté - 1928

An early edition of three children's stories bound as one album. The first work in the "Gédéon Collection" - which was created by Benjamin Rabier. A renowned French illustrator, Rabier created the famous character Gédéon, a yellow domestic duck with a notably long neck, in 1923. Gédéon is the protagonist of this children's series, sharing various adventures that often include animal friends like Roudoudou the rabbit and Alfred the crocodile, both of whom feature in this book. Original blue paper covered hardback with red cloth spine. The boards are in good condition, with just a little rubbing, marking, and edgewear. Internally clean and tidy, with a little darkening to the pages. Adverts for the series to the front and rear of the work. Each of the three works here are 16 pages (so 48 pages in total). 32 x 25 cm.
