Album du jeune voyageur

contenant ce qu'il y a de plus curieux dans les cinq parties du monde orné de 24 gravures. Paris, J. Langlumé, (1847), 48 p., with 24 hand-coloured lithographed plates, originally lithographed cardboard, oblong 16mo.

One page is damaged in blank outside corner and some other small defects. Very fine hand-coloured copy, which gives the plates a bright and dramatic look. Contains, among others, plates of spouts, an eruption of the Etna, a hot air balloon, the hunt of a narwhal, men in a boat under attack by walruses, a shipwreck, a mirage, and the hunt of a sperm whale. The Bibliothèque Nationale de France has an uncoloured copy fully digitised online.
