CARAN D'ACHE: (1858-1909) Emmanuel Poire. French satirist and political cartoonist. An excellent series of original bold pencil drawings, unsigned, by Caran D'Ache, two pages, 4to, n.p. (Paris?), n.d. (1880s), on the attractive printed stationery of the Maison Caran D'Ache ('Fondee en 1883'). To the recto of the page Caran D'Ache has sketched a series of five caricatures of various soldiers in uniform, all in full-length poses, some of them seated. To the verso appear a further series of drawings, the 'story without words' comprising fifteen panels and recounting a horseman being jolted from his horse and ending the day in frustration before going to bed to let his injuries heal. Some light age wear and creasing and a small tear to one edge, otherwise about VG
Caran D'Ache's 'stories without words', which he created and contributed for newspapers including Le Figaro, are sometimes hailed as one of the precursors to comic strips.
