Aesop's Fables
(Pavilion Books, 1992)
A very pleasing book available from this publisher only in the United Kingdom. See the adjacent listing for the first U.S. edition. Salter was born in Cairo, and her art here is in a primitive style after that of Persian ...
Aesop: Fables
(Alfred A. KnopfDistributed by Random House, 1992)
I have wanted a Gooden Aesop since I found his La Fontaine edition (1931) four months ago. This book does not seem to mention Gooden's 1936 limited edition of 525 copies done by George Harrap using L'Estrange's version. ...
The Children's Aesop
(Caroline House/Boyds Mills Press, 1992)
Well done! Twenty-eight fables generally given two pages apiece for the tale and the picture, with a moral clearly boxed in a different color at the end. Well told, especially for children, with morals that make sense, ...
Aesop: Fables
(David Campbell Publishers Ltd., 1992)
Identical with the adjacent book published as a Borzoi Book by Alfred A. Knopf. This British/European version is published by David Campbell and distrubted by Random House (UK) Ltd. Thus the only difference in the book ...
Aesop's Fables
(Unicorn Publishing House, 1992)
Here is the second printing of Unicorn's 1992 book using Sturrock's illustrations that first appeared in 1988. This second printing differs from the first particularly in its front cover. Now the front cover is the full ...
The Children's Aesop
(Boyd Mills PressCaroline House/Boyds Mills Press, 1992)
This printing of a delightful book is almost exactly the same as a book already in the collection in the same year. The differences include these: not Caroline House but Boyds Mills Press is on the title-page; the list ...
Aesop: Tales of Aethiop the African, Volume II
(Sea Island Information Group, 1992)
I got this signed copy of Volume II along with a signed copy of Volume I (1989) on Ebay. See my comments there and on the first printing of the first edition in the same year. Here are twenty-five fables with an introduction ...
Aesop's Fables
(Mitsui Fudosan, 1992)
These eleven colorful banners were hung in the lobby of 1251 Avenue of the Americas during renovations. Now this volume is dedicated to the tenants, guests, and friends for their patience and understanding during the ...
Aesop's Fables
(Unicorn Publishing House, 1992)
This book makes a curious study in the movement from an original to a cheaper children's book. The sharp acrylics of Sturrock's 1988 edition have lost something here. The thirty fables there have become nineteen here. ...
Aesop's Fables
(Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, 1992)
This beautiful first U.S. edition varies little from the Pavilion original; see my comments there. The flyleaves, title pages, and colophon pages seem to contain the only differences. As I wrote there, this is a very ...
