3. Bruxelles, LIbrairie Falk, 1911, in-8°, 128 pp + two folding maps , b/w ills., sewn, original red printed wrapper. (Wrapper a bit worn and unfresh, interior with some marginal stains, not a tidy copy but still acceptable). Rare account of a Belgian mission to China to officially announce the succession in the kingdom of Belgium by Albert I upon the death of Leopold II. The mission was headed by one of Belgium's foremost industrialists, which leads to the assumption that this change of kings was only a pretext for a disguised sales tour to promote Belgian industrial products.
