France, René Doumic, 1933, a bronze medal by L. Bazor, bust right, reverse robed female holding two torches between the Old and New Worlds, 68mm (CGMP p.30). Extremely fine, rare (£40-60)

René Doumic became managing director of the publication La Revue des Deux Mondes in 1916. The reverse of this medal is taken from Bazor’s large medal for the publication’s centenary in 1929 (cf. lot 930), although the Doumic medal is significantly rarer in commerce
