Explication de la Loi-Grammont. Loi du 2 Juillet 1850 [Explanation of The Grammont-Law. Passed July 2nd 1850].

A very rare epehemeron issued by a now ancient French Society for the protection of animals, Grammont’s Law punished public abusers of domestic animals with fines of between five to fifteen francs and/or from one to five days in prison.

Very rare, one copy only on OCLC at the BNF, cited in *Le Musée d’Histoire de la Justice’*s only Bibliographie de l’histoire de la justice francaise.

Provenance: the dog section of The LSD Library, Julio Mario Santo Domingo has inscribed “Louis’s books” near the top edge of the cover. Louis Santo Domingo was his dog, after which his library was named.
