Les fables d'Ésope, avec soixante figures d'après Barlow : collection de gravures piquantes eta d'apologues ingenieux pour l'amusement et l'instruction de la jeunesse.
(Chez Genets jeune, 1805)
As Bodemann points out, this edition adds a life of Aesop to earlier editions, though those seem to have included more fables and illustrations. This is a landscape-formatted smaller (6½" x 4½") book. I have seen this ...
Aesop's Fables: A New Version Chiefly from the Original Sources
(John Murray, 1867)
This little book represents my first copy of Wolf's revision of Tenniel's work. Tenniel's original 1848 work published by Murray apparently got such a negative response that, before reissuing it in 1851, the publisher ...
Aesop's Fables, with 100 Illustrations
(J.B. Lippincott, 1916)
This book represents a major find, for which I am strongly indebted to Mary. This copy got me going on a major project, and I found Opper worthy of careful analysis. See my extensive comments on the first edition (1916). ...
C'era una Volta. Esopo-Perrault.
(Arnoldo Mondadori, 1986)
A big book in every way! There are six thematic groups of between seven and fourteen stories each, every group starting with one Perrault story and finishing with the rest from Aesop. The introduction speaks of offering ...

Part of a set (for $39.95) including a Lamb Chop puppet, wrapping paper, greeting card, Lamb Chop's Sing-Along, Play-Along cassette, and Lamb Chop's Jump into the Story videotape. The LM story fits well into the situation ...
Aesop's Fables
(McLoughlin Brothers, 1901)
This edition stands out from others by Griset from McLoughlin in that it gives its own date (on a rock in the cover illustration). It has the lovely colored TMCM frontispiece one can find in both 1900? editions from ...
The Fables of Aesop (small format)
(Illustrated Editions Co., 1857)
I cannot believe that I have found yet another different format of a Bennett edition! This one is almost identical with the 1857/1931 edition by World Publishing in Cleveland. It thus has a small format and thin pages. ...

(Société des Anciens Textes Français: Librairie Ancienne Honoré Champion, 1929)
The first two volumes of Pierre Ruelle's Recueil Général des Isopets, from 1982 covering Macho appeared in 1929, and here they are. This valuable gathering of medieval collections includes, in this volume, L' Isopet de ...

(Société des Anciens Textes Français: Librairie Ancienne Honoré Champion, 1929)
The first two volumes of Pierre Ruelle's Recueil Général des Isopets, from 1982 covering Macho appeared in 1929, and here they are. This valuable gathering of medieval collections includes, in this volume, Neckam and the ...
The Lion and the Mouse
(Random House, 1998)
Here is a later printing, and indeed a later version, of a book already in the collection, though I can find no acknowledgement that this later printing came at a later date. The format of both covers has changed, inside ...
