Baker, Josephine. (1906–1975) [Sauvage, Marcel.]

Voyages et aventures de Joséphine Baker

Paris: M. Seheur. 1931. Voyages et aventures de Joséphine Baker, illustré de photographies, de hors-texte en couleurs et de nombreux dessins. 149 p., [8] leaves of plates : ill. (some col.). 12 mo (18 cm). One of 1500 copies. Illustrated wrappers, spine reinforced with tape at head and base, wear around edges as usual on this very fragile volume, but a more solid than usual example and internally very fine throughout. 

Beginning at the age of 21, from 1927 to 1935, Baker collaborated on three memoirs produced by journalists aspiring to capitalize on her fame: Les Mémoires de Josephine Baker (1927), by Marcel Sauvage; Voyage et aventures de Josephine Baker (1931), also by Suavage; and Une Vie de toutes les couleurs (1935), by André Rivollet.  (23139)
