    The Word-Picture Fable Book, or Old Aesop in a New Dress 

    Aesop; William (T. Nelson and Sons Paternoster Row,, 1872)
    One first encounters here a lovely colored pasted-on illustration of FG on the cloth cover. Inside are twenty-two fables offered in rebus form. Beginning on 75 there is a key, a collection of standard tellings of the ...

    Fables from Aesop and Myths from Palaephatus with a vocabulary 

    Aesop; Palaephatus; White, John T (Longmans, Green, and Co./Kessinger Publishing's Legacy Reprints, 1876)
    Here is a late nineteenth-century textbook that probably seems curious to us. There are eighteen Aesopic fables in simple Greek prose. Then there are ten mythological stories. After that there is only a vocabulary. ...

    Old Friends and New Faces 

    Aesop; Defoe, Daniel (Cassell Peter, and Galpin,Cassell, Petter, and Galpin, 1870)
    This large-format book never prints on both sides of the page. The Aesop's Fables section begins with a full-page text and full-page colored illustration of 2W, marred by pencil scribblings. There follow five pages of ...

    Aesop's Fables 

    Aesop; Griset, Ernest Henry; Rundell, J. B (Boston: Lee and Shepard/NY: Charles T. Dillingham, 1878)
    This book matches one I found over eleven years ago, with the single exception that it has a green cloth cover rather than the blue cover there. The gold of the god holding an axe on the cover with its red title-lettering ...

    Chwedlau neu Ddammegion Aesop 

    Aesop; Alun, Glan; Krylov, Ivan Andreevich; La Fontaine, Jean de (Argraffwyd a Chyhoeddwyd gan R. Hughes & Son,, 1870)
    What a wonderful little treasure. The first book has a frontispiece of Aesop holding a scroll sitting in the countryside surrounded by animals. 140 fables, most with rectangular little illustrations reminiscent of Croxall. ...

    Aesop's Fables Illustrated 

    Aesop (Samuel R. Wells, 1870)
    My best and earliest copy of this thin work. It probably gets the prize for the smallest print in my collection. AI at the beginning and a list of illustrations. Tenniel's illustrations remain wonderful, even when ...

    The Fables of Aesop with Instructive Applications Illustrated with One Hundred Engravings 

    Aesop; Croxall, Samuel (Milner and Sowerby, 1870)
    This is a wonderful little find, 3¾ x 5. Most Croxall editions (including the earliest) have 196 fables. This edition has 211 fables. Miller’s 1865 edition has 248. In fact, there are 208 here and then three separate ...

    Aesop's Fables in Verse 

    Aesop; Ballantine, Jane B (Andrew Elliot, 1877)
    Here is a curious observation. This book is printed by Ballantyne, Hanson, and Company in Edinburgh and London. Might the author here be a member of the family of the printer? As the opening T of C shows, there is a ...

    The Fables of Aesop [Cover: Warne's National Nursery Library] 

    Aesop; Croxall, Samuel; Townsend, George Fyler (Frederick Warne and Co./Scribner, Welford, and Armstrong, 1875)
    This copy is identical with one exception to a book I found five years ago from Columbia Basin Books. That copy had a cream-background board cover with a title of Warne's Edition of Aesop's Fables. At the top of the cover ...

    The Christian Aesop: Ancient Fables Teaching Eternal Truths 

    Aesop; Anderdon, W. H (Burns, Oates, and Company/Premier BooksKessinger Publishing, 1871)
    Here is the hardbound version of the print-upon-order paperback I had found a year earlier. This book is a delightful find that I just looked at in a Kripke Conference paper. For each of fifty fables, Anderdon adds to ...
