A beautifully aged academic gem for lovers of language, history, and vintage paper. This 1946 quarto edition by W. v. Wartburg (professor at the University of Basel) explores the evolution and structure of the French language, printed entirely in French by Éditions A. Francke S.A. in Switzerland.
🖋️ Includes a handwritten study card and a pencilled name dated 1952 on the flyleaf — a lovely glimpse into a mid-century scholar’s world.
📖 Condition: Aged to perfection — gentle wear, light foxing, and a softly worn cover. Binding intact. Ideal for reading or styling.
✨ Would make a beautiful shelf ornament or coffee table accent — especially for lovers of vintage books, French language, or academic history.
♻️ Rescued and rehomed by Eco Finds Collective — where every forgotten treasure gets a second story.
