Zehn Fabeln des Aesop
(Folkwang-OffizinFolkwang-Werkkunstschule, 1954)
Each of the ten fables here has one, two, or three small woodcuts colored in green and black. Most are about 2 square. The best of them include TB, FC, and Fabel vom Pfau und der Göttin. Pferd, Rind, Hund und Mensch has ...
Fabeln des Äsop
(Hermann Kuhn KG.s.n.], 1954)
I am including a second copy of this book because I have found a copy dedicated by the artist. The other copy, #455 of 500, is identical and has Gothein's signature with the number at the book's end. This copy, #285 of ...
Fables of Aesop
(Penguin, 1954)
This paperback from Clare Leeper presents a transition between two copies of the Penguin paperback I already had. The simplest way to find the chain of changes is to watch the new retail price marked on the book. My ...
Fabeln des Äsop

Fables of Aesop
(Penguin Books, 1954)
This book is larger than the 1954/64 edition I know in this country. The print itself has grown, and thus this printing is easier to read than earlier printings. This may be a printing restricted from distribution in the ...
12 Fables of Aesop
(Museum of Modern Artdist. by Doubleday & Company, 1954)
The style is distinctive, but alas I do not find one good illustration (or story for that matter) that I would want to use. People should have a chance to see this book, but so far at least I do not find in it the fantasy ...
12 Fables of Aesop
(Museum of Modern Artdist. by Doubleday & Company, 1954)
There is already in the collection a signed third printing of this book. Here is a second printing. As I wrote there, the style is distinctive, but alas I do not find one good illustration (or story for that matter) that ...
