La Parodie. Paris, n°1 (June 4, 1869) to n°21 (January 9-10, 1870); in-4 (32x24 cm), bradel percaline mordoré. Satirical journal edited by Gill, abundantly illustrated in black and in colours by Gill, Robida, Regamey, Alfred Le Petit, etc. (Seven covers missing). Very amusing journal including in its first issue works by Paul Verlaine: Poèmes en prose, Eloge des fleurs artificielles, Les Estampes, L'hystérique", and caricatures of artists exhibited at the 1869 salon, such as Renoir, Courbet, Manet, etc., as well as parodies of writers' texts. Very rare journal which had only 21 issues. In the preface Gill writes: "To laugh, a serious thing. To make laugh, a more serious thing".
