    The Fables of Aesop as first pr Vol I 

    Aesop; Caxton, William; Jacobs, Joseph (David Nutt, 1889)
    Almost no illustrations. Helpful for deciphering Caxton's English. The two volumes from William Allen were early finds, and I have watched them deteriorate on the shelf for thirteen years. How nice now to find a set in ...

    The Fables of Aesop as first p Vol II 

    Aesop; Caxton, William; Jacobs, Joseph (David Nutt, 1889)
    Contains a good transcription into more readable text of Caxton's version. Helpful for deciphering Caxton's English. The Ryland frontispiece-engraving of Aesop as a shepherd is otherwise unknown to me.

    The Fables of Aesop as first printed by William Caxton in 1484 with those of Avian, Alfonso, and Poggio, now again edited and induced by Joseph Jacobs. 

    Aesop; Caxton, William (translator); Jacobs, Joseph (Burt Franklin, 1889)
    The Same as Volume 1 of the David Nutt entry. Do not miss the index (225) and especially the synopsis (229). I am eager to try some of Jacobs' scholarship. There is a wonderful pedigree of Caxton's Aesop facing 1.

    Aesop; Jacobs, Joseph; Lear, Edward; Tenniel, John (Grolier Society, 1967)
    This book is identical (in larger format with enlarged and relatively good illustrations) with the Avenel edition (1967?) of the same name, except that it also contains Edward Lear's Nonsense Alphabets upside down and going ...

    The Fables of Aesop as first printed by William Caxton in 1484 Volume I 

    Aesop; Caxton, William; Jacobs, Joseph (David Nutt, 1889)
    I had noted this book sitting on Midway's shelf for years. I once recommended it to the Heffelfinger collection in Minneapolis. I never realized that it was Joseph Jacobs' own copy. I am now especially delighted to add ...
