Illustrated first edition, drawings by Férat engraved by Charles Brabant.

Beautiful top plate, fresh. A very slightly blunted corner, the others a little rubbed, but very rigid and pointed. Back well, but lower bit split and open at the top. second board in beautiful condition. Regular golden slices. Scattered foxing. Nice copy.
The Black Indies are the Scottish coal mines. An operator discovers a deposit and builds a real underground city, a girl is discovered there that seems to have never seen the day. The underground city is a utopia, an ideal vision of a hidden world.
