Softcover. Condición: poor to good+. Second edition. Folio. [3] 38pp. [9]. Original illustrated gray wrappers with red lettering on the front cover. Three illustrated title pages. Compiled and recorded by Ekaterina Alekseevna Cherkasskaya (1825-1888) and Baroness Varvara Sergeevna Plessen (1825-1893), this extremely scarce work is a collection of Russian lullabies, nursery rhymes, and children's songs of the 19th century. Both women were members of the Russian aristocracy of the period. As stated opposite the title page, the work is dedicated to Russian children and features delightful b/w engraved illustrations throughout by French artist Georges Gimbel (George Gimbel, ca.1840- ca.1890). The final 8 pages contain sheet music for 9 songs (with musical notation, lyrics and illustration), some of which was composed by "E.N. Zh-oy", and some of which was taken by her from previously existing melodies. We have not been able to determine the composer's identity, but the text states she is female. The first edition of the work is believed to have been published the previous year, also in Strasbourg, although information on this collection is extremely scant. There are no noted copies of either edition of this extremely scarce work on OCLC worldwide, although there are a few references to an existing copy in the Russian State Archives, and it is not known how many copies were ever printed. Pre-Revolutionary era Russian children's books with sheet music where quite uncommon, and it is interesting to observe that the majority of the contributors to this work were women. Text throughout in Russian. Wraps frayed along edges with chips and light creasing, back cover detached but present. Spine mostly missing. Some foxing in margins not affecting images. Images mostly still clean and vibrant. Wraps in overall poor, interior in good+ condition overall. Wrappers protected in modern mylar. Extremely scarce.
