Mercure de France, Paris 1913, 11,5x18,5cm, broché.

Mercure de France | Paris 1913 | 11.5 x 18.5 cm | original wrappers, custom chemise
 
The first edition, first printing, numbered in the press, with only 23 large paper copies on Hollande paper.

Discreet restorations to spine.
With a chemise of half red morocco over paper boards by Boichot, spine in six compartments, date to foot of spine, identical paper slipcase with red morocco edging. 
Rare autograph inscription signed by Guillaume Apollinaire: "for Henri Ghéon whose poetry I like, Guillaume Apollinaire".
This copy also with five manuscript corrections by Apollinaire on pages 71, 77, 92, 110 and 189.
A good copy with a rare autograph inscription by the poet. 
Apollinaire inscribed this copy to the literary critic of La Nouvelle Revue Française, Henri Ghéon. The poet was careful to correct the typos that were still present in the very first edition, corrections that we also find in other advance copies or those given away by the author. After receiving his copy, Ghéon dedicated an article to Alcools ("Alcools, par Guillaume Apollinaire", Nouvelle Revue Française, n° LVI, 1er July 1913), calling the collection an "adventurous step".
Inscriptions by Apollinaire on this text are rare and sought-after.
