Éditions Claude Givaudan Catalog (1979)




Geneva, Switzerland: Éditions Claude Givaudan (catalog), 1979.
8.25" x 5.25", 20 pages, stapled.

Éditions Claude Givaudan, a 20-page stapled visual catalog of seventeen items published by Claude Givaudan between 1966 and 1979, when this was published.

This includes two William S. Burroughs items – first, Lettres à Allen Ginsberg, the bilingual French and English edition of 100 numbered and signed copies and 400 numbered copies. Although not stated, this was published in cooperation with Richard Aaron's Am Here Books.  Second, this shows an entry for "Scrapbook 3", a color xerox reproduction of William S. Burroughs' scrapbook, in an edition of thirty copies. This is still the only full reproduction of one of his scrapbooks on the market, and very rare at this point.

This copy was acquired from Librarie Jean-Yves Lacroix (Gouloux, France).
