Antique French School Books Bundle of 2, Hachette Clothbound Volumes from the Early 20th Century

A charming pair of antique French-language schoolbooks, offering a glimpse into early 20th-century French education. With their muted sage and gray-green cloth covers, aged paper labels, and wonderfully timeworn bindings, these volumes make a lovely addition to a vintage book collection or French-inspired decorative display.

The bundle includes Morceaux Choisis by V. Bouillot, published by Librairie Hachette. This French literature reader features selections and educational material covering grammar, orthography, composition, and literature. Bibliographic records document editions of Bouillot’s work from the early 1900s, including 1912 and 1913 editions.

The second volume bears a spine label reading Langue française – Cours supérieur, identifying it as an advanced French-language course book.

Both books have authentic aged character, with worn cloth covers, frayed edges, damaged spines, discoloration, and general signs of handling and use.
