A Book Concluding With As A Wife Has A Cow. A Love Story. Paris, Galerie Simon, 1926. 26 : 20 cm. 10 leaves with 4 (one in colour) original lithographs by Juan Gris. Loose sheets as issued in original paper covers with title on front cover, housed in black ostrich-leather covers with inlaid triangles in white ostrich leather, precisely cut and fittet, title on spine, housed in a similar special slipcase.
First and only edition. One of 110 copies on papier vergé, imprint signed by the artist and the author. Laid into a special binding in ostrich leather, designed reflecting modernist visual principles, and the triangles eco themes of fragmentation and abstraction, which resonates with Stein's avantgarde literary style and unorthodox narratives structures. The small, centered printed strip reading "Gertrude Stein - A Book Concluding With As A Wife Has A Cow" is discreet and typographically elegant, reinforcing the minimalist, literary-art object approach. Leather laid over boards, common in luxury bindings. The slipcase in the same manner as the binding
