Contes pour les Bibliophiles was noted in "The Century Magazine" (May, 1895, page 354 ff.) in a review section on "Books in Paper Covers." I say noted; but actually, only the cover was reviewed. The cover was reproduced in a photoengraving in "Century" and its artistic values were denigrated; the contents apparently remained unread. Perhaps they were unhappy because Uzanne ocasionally appeared in English in "Scribner's Magazine", which competed fiercely with "Century".
The story itself appeared in a clumsy English translation in "Scribner's", Vol. 16 (1894), pp 221-231, with illustrations by Robida — some the same as those in the collection Contes, and some different. A few of those used in both places were printed more clearly in the magazine, but most were reproduced badly in the magazine and are clearer in the collection Contes. The page images are on the web in both JPEG and GIF format at Dave Price's website at Oxford
Another place to see this on the web, with a different set of JPEG images of the "Scribner's" pages, is at the University of Kent at Canterbury, which also has an HTML of the whole piece with the artwork located in approximately the right places (but of questionable size), and an HTML version with the art left out.
A fabulous resource for anyone interested in the history of American magazines (or American history in general) is the MOA project at Cornell. They have put up on the web full-page images of the complete editorial contents of long runs of 19C magazines. "Scribner's" is included; at MOA you can see what else was in the same issue with this piece. Unfortunately, their reproduction of the i llustrations is very bad, either because of their imaging methodology or because they were working from bad microforms. Also, it has always been common for libraries to discard the covers and ads from magazines before binding them, to save money and shelf space. Today we find the ads and cover illustrations generally more interesting than the stories and features. Most of the volumes at MOA lack the ads and covers. Such is life.
To find out more about Albert Robida and Octave Uzanne:
"Albert Robida's Imperfect Future" in "History Today," July 1998. (I have not yet seen this article myself.)
A page describing the "Association of the Friends of Albert Robida", (Les Amis) with links to some of his drawings on the web.
Some interesting pages at pansophist.com display Albert Robida illlustrations, as used by Disney at the recently closed Horizons pavilion (1983-99) at Epcot: Introduction and Follow-on.
A different piece by Uzanne, also from "Scribner's", (1892, p. 558) can also be found at the MOA project: "Conversations and Opinions of Victor Hugo - from Unpublished Papers Found at Guernsey". Yet another is "The Arts Relating to Women, and their Exhibition in Paris" (Vol. 13 (1893), page 503). You should be able to go directly to the "Scribner's" volumes at MOA.
