Lysistrata. Ein Lustspiel in Fünf Akten. Mit neun Zeichnungen von Aubrey Beardsley
[Germany, privately printed, circa 1905].
Folio, 94 pages printed in red and black plus 9 full-page erotic illustrations printed in red.
Original gilt-pictorial full morocco, top edge gilt, others uncut; covers unevenly sunned (apparently an endemic problem with this edition); extremities rubbed and a trifle worn, with minor restoration to the spine ends; small light marks to the bottom margin of five consecutive pages; a very good copy.
Number 26 from a privately-printed edition of only 200 copies on Zanders laid paper; the translation is by Johannes Minckwitz.
