    The Fables of Aesop 

    Aesop; Jacobs, Joseph (Schocken Books, 1894)
    This may be the best single simple edition of Aesop I know. Heighway is a wonderful illustrator. This edition presents the engravings quite crisply.

    The Fables of Aesop 

    Aesop; Jacobs, Joseph (The Macmillan Co., 1894)
    Identical with the 1929 printing of the 1894 edition except for the gaudy coloring of the frontispiece (a red fox and yellow grass!), the thick cheap paper, and the notation on the back of the title page that there was a ...

    The Fables of Aesop as first pr Vol I 

    Aesop; Caxton, William; Jacobs, Joseph (David Nutt, 1889)
    Almost no illustrations. Helpful for deciphering Caxton's English. The two volumes from William Allen were early finds, and I have watched them deteriorate on the shelf for thirteen years. How nice now to find a set in ...

    The Fables of Aesop 

    Aesop; Jacobs, Joseph (MacMillan, 1950)
    A handy volume in great shape. There are two aquatints per story in the familiar Jacobs version: some show good wit, like the tree/stake for Young Thief and Mother on 87. There is a slightly different version and picture ...

    The Fables of Aesop 

    Aesop; Jacobs, Joseph (©1966 Legacy Press. Ann Arbor: University Microfilms, Inc.: Xerox., 1894)
    Is it not curious that this publisher would choose to go back to Jacobs and Heighway the very year that Schocken picked them up? An unidentified Legacy Library editor G.H. writes an introductory note to the reader. ...

    The Fables of Aesop: Selected, Told Anew and Their History Traced by Joseph Jacobs. 

    Aesop; Jacobs, Joseph (Macmillan, 1964)
    Meg got this for me from her Berkeley High library. I love any illustrations that Levine does; the added spice here is that he later (1975) turned his hand to a fuller illustration. One can trace the genesis of some of ...

    The Fables of Aesop as first printed by William Caxton in 1484 with those of Avian, Alfonso, and Poggio, now again edited and induced by Joseph Jacobs. 

    Aesop; Caxton, William (translator); Jacobs, Joseph (Burt Franklin, 1889)
    The Same as Volume 1 of the David Nutt entry. Do not miss the index (225) and especially the synopsis (229). I am eager to try some of Jacobs' scholarship. There is a wonderful pedigree of Caxton's Aesop facing 1.

    The Fables of Aesop 

    Aesop; Jacobs, Joseph (Macmillan Company, 1894)
    The special value of this reprinting of Jacobs' work lies in the dust-jacket, which is in fair to good condition. It reproduces the garishly colored frontispiece found in the many reprints that Macmillan did of the ...

    The Fables of Aesop as first printed by William Caxton in 1484 Volume I 

    Aesop; Caxton, William; Jacobs, Joseph (David Nutt, 1889)
    I had noted this book sitting on Midway's shelf for years. I once recommended it to the Heffelfinger collection in Minneapolis. I never realized that it was Joseph Jacobs' own copy. I am now especially delighted to add ...

    The Fables of Aesop: Selected, told anew and their history traced by Joseph Jacobs 

    Aesop; Jacobs, Joseph (Pathfinder Publishing Co., 1894)
    This small (4½ x 6½) edition shares several curious features with the other five like it in format: Home Book Company 1894/95? (plain tan cover with title); Montgomery Ward 1894/98 (La Belle Library on cover); Caldwell ...
