This is a roneotype of a talk, describing a number of the sites and locations around Huysmans' birthplace, given by Alice Mamelsdorf to members of the Huysmans Society on 24 February 1951. This was the first in a series of talks, published by the Huysmans Society under the general title of Conférences-Promenades, and printed in small numbers.

This example is a presentation copy signed and dedicated by the author to Jean Jacquinot, a prominent member of the Huysmans Society in the 1950s and 60s.
