Seven antisemitic issues of the French magazine "L'Éclipse" - 1868-1869


Seven early antisemitic issues of the French magazine L'ECLIPSE - "The Eclipse" - including issues published in the first year. On the title pages of the issues are large illustrations of Jews with stereotypical faces depicted as controllers and greedy for money.


Issues:

  • May 3, 1868
  • August 30, 1868
  • October 4, 1868
  • October 11, 1868
  • October 17, 1869
  • April 11, 1869
  • December 19, 1869

L'Éclipse, a French magazine published in the nineteenth century, appeared between 1868 and 1876. Edited by Francis Polo, the title pages of the issues were illustrated by André Gill. The newspaper was closed for a while after an illustration of Napoleon III was presented in it. Due to the grotesqueness of the illustrations, the newspaper was restricted by the government and forced to close from time to time.


Seven complete issues. (Each issue is 4 pages). Minor tears to margins of some issues. Overall good condition.
