Aesop's Fables Coloring Book
(Dover Publications, 1476)
Here is the second generation of Dover's lovely coloring book. The price has gone up from $1.50 to $2.50. It will go up at least twice more in my history of collecting it, though I found this copy for half-price. As I ...

Aesop's Fables Coloring Book
(Dover, 1476)

(Da Capo Press, Plenum Publishing Corporation, 1483)

Aesopus: Vita et Fabulae Ulm 1476 (Faksimile)
(Edition Libri Illustri Verlag, 1476)
I never thought we would have a copy of this wonderful book in the collection. From the time I first saw subscriptions being invited, I feared it would always be beyond our means. Prayers do get answered! This is a ...
The History and Fables of Aesop
(Scolar Press, 1484)

The Medici Aesop
(The New York Public Library, 1488)
This book was published in a hardbound version by Harry N. Abrams in 1989. The lovely illustrations remain as precisely rendered here as there. In a curious move, Adele Westbrook, editor of the hardbound version, is not ...

(Hamish Hamilton Ltd., 1484)
This book of 37 fables has two very positive features: the coloring of Caxton's (primitive) woodcuts and the faithful rendition of his text with modern spelling and orthography. Different: the ox also steps on the expanding ...
