Russian Fables of Ivan Krylov
(Penguin Books, 1942)
I am amazed to see this bilingual Russian/English Penguin published during the war. The English is identical, in the instances I have checked, with Pares' Cape edition (1926) and my Harcourt edition (1926/26?). The Cape ...
Basni Ivana Andreevicha Krylova
(s.n., 1916)
The eBay seller opined that this is a pre-revolution publication, and he seems to be right. Has a page become detached, or does this book not even proclaim its publisher? As the closing AI indicates, there are here some ...
I.A. Krylov Basni
(Pravda, 1978)
This looks to me like a standard Krylov edition from the Communist era. The paper is cheap, and the black-and-white illustrations rather sketchily printed. The good news is that the illustrations occupy a full page and ...

Krylov's Birds & Beasts: A Selection of the Fables
(Howard Baker, 1990)
A curious book by a translator who is pictured standing with a bear! Forty-five verse fables in rhyming couplets, with the last of them, Dancing Fish (77) in two versions, the first of which was originally suppressed by ...
A Child's Version of Aesop's Fables
(Ginn & Co., 1904)
This copy of Stickney's book is a duplicate of the 1904 Ginn edition, with three exceptions that I can find. First, Ginn is located now in Boston, New York, Chicago, and London. Secondly, this copy is not dated. Thirdly, ...

The Cat and the Cook and Other Fables of Krylov.

A large-format, brightly-pictured book of twelve fables. Some of Krylov's best are included, like The Swan, the Pike, and the Crab (11), The Quartet (16), and The Wolf and the Cat (26). Two new favorites here are the ...
Fables choisies de Kryloff
(Paul Ollendorff, 1898)
Thirty-six fables appear here in French verse. This is a very roomy book of 162 pages. Every title is on its own page, and many if not all fables are followed by one blank page. The spine is very fragile, and many pages ...
Ivan Krolov
("Eesti Raamat", 1969)
There are three fables in Estonian in this twenty-page book 7¾ x 7. Each has a strong black-and white ink illustration. The Monkey and the Spectacles has spectacles and their parts around the monkey at its center. The ...
