"Au pays des nains méchants" ("Land of the Little People") by Lee Falk and Phil Davis.

This special issue, released in 1964 by CELEG ("Centre d'Étude des Littératures d'Expression Graphique") (="Studies Center of Graphic Expression",a nostalgia comics club), was not intended for public distribution but reserved to CELEG's club members. Few copies were printed as 426 were numbered from #1 to #426 for subscribers and 26 were numbered from A to Z for founder members.
Strips appear only on the right side pages of the book, the left pages being blank.
Inside, the book is sub-titled "4 voyages vers l'ailleurs" ("4 Trips to somewhere else").
Strangely enough, this volume 2 was printed before the following volume which was presented as volume 1.
As the February 21, 1937 Sunday page remained unpublished in France, it was replaced by a Polish reprint page firstly issued in Świat Przygód (a flying inserted page with translated text was added) / see below. (in the 1967 reprint Mandrake roi de la magie (CELEG / Giff Wiff 23 bis) the same inserted page has a French version).
The book was re-released in 1967 - with a cover colored in orange - by the comics review "Giff-Wiff" as issue 23 bis of their collectors series printed for a more large public.

Subscription letter, with order, form addressed to members of the CELEG association
separate February 21, 1937 Sunday page (text in Polish)
separate page with the translation into French of left insertion.
