MERCIER, Emile

Sauce or Mustard? [Together with eight other books by this well-known Australian cartoonist]

Sydney, Angus and Robertson, 1951.

Octavo; colour-pictorial papered boards a little rubbed at the extremities and lightly marked; a very good copy.

The other items are uniformly in a different format and binding (oblong octavo, flush-cut quarter cloth and colour-pictorial card covers); all are in excellent condition unless otherwise noted. Details are: My Ears are Killing Me (1955); I'm Waiting for an Earthquake! (1956); Follow that Wardrobe! (1957); My Wife's Swallowed a Bishop (1958); Is My Slip Showing? (1959, present as two variants, one with the front cover lacking all details printed in red, including the author's name - both versions have minor cover blemishes); Hold It! (1960); and Don't Shove! (1961). This group comprises eight of Mercier's eleven collections of cartoons, which were originally published in 'The Sun' newspaper in Sydney. [9 items].
