MARIE-MAD (Marie-Madeleine BOURDIN, known as). Perlin and Pi - Lot 23
MARIE-MAD (Marie-Madeleine BOURDIN, known as). Perlin and Pinpin: Sketches for 49 Titounet Stories. [1958]. 96 pencil sketches with text (27 x 20.5 cm), including 4 signed “M. Mad” or “Marie-Mad.” 49 Titounet stories for the weekly magazine Perlin et Pinpin in 1958 (issues 1–7, 9–14, 16–40, 42–52). The pages bear the issue number of the weekly and are sometimes dated without a year; the years of publication were identified using a list provided by the artist (not included). Stories numbered 25 and 46 are only one page long; the others are two pages long. A typewritten text, presumably from the publisher, is attached to the first page of story No. 1 with adhesive tape: “You are so very much in tune with the editorial team’s vision that for Issue No. 1, which focused on the galette des rois, your ‘Titounet’ illustrations looked 100% like a story prepared by the editorial team. We therefore extend our congratulations, but at the same time we are obliged to...” Adhesive tape in the margins of a few pages, some creases, a few small stains; otherwise in good condition for this nearly complete year. Provenance: the artist’s studio.
