Individual copies of the Paris comique vary widely in pictorial content, the publication being contrived by the publisher Aubert as means of variously reusing and marketing old texts and already published plates.

Illustrated with 20 hand colored lithographs by Gavarni (5), Daumier (1), Travies (3), Frederic Bouchot (2), A. Lorentz (2), and others.
