    Moore, Edward (R. and J. Dodsley/Reprint: Gregg International Publishers, 1756)
    This is a photographic reproduction of a collection of works by Moore. Among them we find the same fifteen fables--and in the same order--as in my 1744 edition by R. Francklin. See my comments there. This is a sturdy ...

    Coste, Pierre; La Fontaine, Jean de (Aux dépens des Libraires associés, 1790)

    No Author (J. Dodsley, 1767)

    One tile, The Fox and the Stork, English Liverpool printed delftware tile by John Sadler 

    Unknown author (1760)
    Transfer of printed design in black. "88" border. For some reason I find the image slightly hard to read. The stork has his beak in a big demijohn bottle. The fox on hind legs looks almost horse-like! Notice the shadow ...
