LES MYSTERES DE PARIS ET LE JUIF ERRANT by Eugene Sue - The Mystery of Paris and the Wandering Jew - consecutive issues 1-33 . published by BERKIN et MANDON, Paris 1876. French.

A serialized story about the exploits of the plotting "Wandering Jew", the damage he causes to French society, and the danger of the Jew to the stability of the economy and the regime. Accompanied by dozens of pictures, some of them anti-Semitic. From the early publications in France about the 'Legend of the Wandering Jew'. We know of many later editions of the story, before us is the first edition - of the issues themselves as they came out one after the other (not bound into one large volume, as was done in later years).

33 consecutive issues, numbered. Stains on some of the covers, minor tears on the edges of some leaves. Issue No. 4 has open tears at the top and bottom of some leaves with text damage, Issue No. 5 is missing back cover. On some are attached issues that were not cut in print. Overall condition Good - Moderate.
