Fables de La Fontaine
(Maison Alfred Mame et Fils, 1910)
I can find no discrepancy between this book and Bodemann #376.1. Bodemann dates to about 1910 her leicht veränderter Nachdruck of the first edition of 1897. For all I can ascertain, this could even be the 1897 original ...
Fables de La Fontaine
(Maison Alfred Mame et Fils, 1910)
This book seems very close to the edition I have listed under 1910? and which Bodemann lists as #376.1. It has a plain binding, not the colored picture of the frontispiece that one finds on that copy. On the pre-title-page, ...
The Fables of La Fontaine I
(Estes and Lauriat, 1881)
This is the first of two volumes with gold embossed blue-and-white covers in excellent condition. It combines the first two volumes of the set of four which I found at Goodspeed's in March, '89, except that this edition ...

(Estes and Lauriat, 1881)
This is the second of two volumes with gold embossed blue-and-white covers in excellent condition. It combines the final two volumes of the set of four which I found at Goodspeed's in March, '89, except that this edition ...
A Hundred Fables of LaFontaine
(John Lane The Bodley Head, 1900)
After spending $120 for a third printing and then $70 for a second, I have worked my way back to a first printing for much less money. When I earlier reviewed the 1920? printing, I thought that the best of the illustrations ...
Choix de Fables de La Fontaine: Album pour les Enfants
(Librairie Garnier Freres, 1926)
A lovely large-format book in paperboard covers. There are thirty fables of La Fontaine, each introduced with a good Grandville engraving. There are also six full-paged color illustrations by Jules David. If he is the ...
Les Fables de La Fontaine pour Bebe
(Librairie de Théodore LefèvreThéodore Lefèvre et Cie., 1886)
Here is a beautiful oversized (12½ x 10) book containing twenty-two color plates after Oudry. They really are striking. As the description from Abbey points out, the subtle coloring is very close in appearance to hand ...
Fifty Fables by La Fontaine
(American Book Company, 1903)
Here is an extra copy with a green cover, not tan, and E - P 2 -- not W.P. I -- on the verso of the title-page. This book provides just what its title and subtitle promise. The notes are helpful tips at the bottom of the ...
Fables de La Fontaine
(Editions Fabbri, 1961)
See the English version of the presumably Italian original of this book under The Fables of Aesop and La Fontaine (1958). Surprisingly, it took Fabbri three years after the English version to get to this French version. ...
