BASTIA, Georges. Le Zoo des Vedettes. [v. 1950].

First edition printed at 400 numbered copies (n° 35), with 68 caricatures by Georges BASTIA (1904-1980), on 61 plates, , representing the stars of the show of the time such as Sacha Guitry, Jean Gabin, Gérard Philippe, Madeleine Renaud, Jean-Louis Barrault, Brigitte Bardot, Jean Marais, Simone Signoret, Yves Montand, Yvonne Printemps, Bourvil, Michel Simon, etc.

Although bearing the same title and including the same preface as the work published by Éditions Héracléïa v. 1946, this work is completly different.

The rarity of this edition comes from the fact that the quality of the plates which compose it is such that they are often sold separately and sometimes by mistake as original works.
Indeed, each lithograph has een enhanced with gouache by the artist, which gives a kind of uniqueness to each copy.
