Important autograph album with 102 entries, Paris and Vichy, 1921-1946.
18th century calfskin binding, c. 13.5 x 7.5 cm, gold embossing on spine "Memorial" and "1921" (added), gilt edges on three sides, mod. Slipcase, spine with defects, cover joints glued. - A complete list of the entries made by the owner is enclosed with the album.
The almost completely filled album contains 102 entries exclusively from famous or prominent personalities, mainly from France, occasionally from Belgians and Italians and from various European rulers from the period from 1921 to 1946. Two thirds of the entries are from the years 1921-1924, in the following years partly no, partly only individual entries were added, only five entries are from the war years. The owner, the repeatedly mentioned "Madame Feray", who certainly belonged to the Feray-Mallet banking dynasty, was probably Jacqueline Feray née Fuzier or Antoinette Feray, née Mallet. The volume came from the castle library of Coësmes and was a gift from Viscount Guy de Dampierre (1880-1967, bookplate with autograph dedication on flyleaf: "Ceësmes". Dedication on flyleaf: "Ce petit Livre, extrait de la Bibliothèque de Coësme, vous dira que l'on vous y aime par dessus tout, même au dela, 1er février 1921 G.D.").
With the exception of very few pieces inserted later, almost all the entries were compiled by the owner of the album herself, who had access to the highest social circles, right up to the Élysée Palace.
Outstanding are 9 autograph drawings (partly in pencil, coloured pencil or watercolour) in excellent quality by important contemporary artists. Some of them probably portray the owner of the album: Henri Gervex (1852-1929, young woman in profile), Emile Friant (1863-1932, girl with plate), Frédéric Montenard (1849-1926, watercolour: "Oratoire de Provence"), Jean-Louis Forain (1852-1931", La main a la poche", verkl.
