Aesop's Fables in Words of One Syllable
(Cassell Petter and Galpin,, 1868)
Now this is very surprising. Over years I worked my way back to what I thought was a first edition of Godolphin's work, published by James Miller in NY in 1869. Now I have here in my hand, for $142 less, a copy inscribed ...
Aesop's Fables in Words of One Syllable
(George Routledge & Sons, 1883)
This book has the same text as the 1895 title mentioning the same author. However the order of the stories (about one hundred) and of the illustrators is different. This edition has a cock/dog frontispiece and a fox and ...
Aesop's Fables in Words of One Syllable.
(Hurst & Company, 1890)
I have spent lots of time with this curious, overpriced book. Its cover presents several good Aesopic images. Its text plates, including T of C, ninety-nine fables, and their pagination, are identical with those in the ...
Aesop's Fables in Words of One Syllable
(George Routledge and Sons Limited,, 1887)
This is the fourth similar book, and I have two copies of it. Because both are in relatively poor condition, I will keep both in the collection. Of the similar books, two have noticeably different covers and come from ...
Aesop's Fables in Words of One Syllable
(A.L. Burt Company Publ.,, 1895)
This copy replicates another in the collection in almost every respect. The printing of the year 1895 on the verso of the title-page is clearer. Above all, it fills in the price for each book in the series on the very ...
Aesop's Fables in Words of One Syllable with Illustrations
(Cassell & Company Limited,, 1888)
Here is a second copy, slightly different and again in poor condition, of a book already in the collection. Its front cover, a pictorial red board, shows a circular image of FK. At its bottom is Copyright 1888 O.M. Dunham. ...
Aesop's Fables in Words of One Syllable
(George Routledge & Sons, 1882)
This is one more in a large series of nearly identical books. Routledge published this same book with colorful covers; I have listed those editions under 1883? and 1887? Several things distinguish this book. It has a ...
Aesop's Fables in Words of One Syllable Printed in the Learners' Style of Phonography, or Phonetic Shorthand
(London: Isaac Pitman & Sons/Bath: Phonetic Institute, 1888)
This is the third of the four different dated Pitman-Godolphin booklets I have found. Here the London publisher is Isaac Pitman & Sons at 1 Amen Corner, Paternoster Row, E.C. And the Bath publisher is Phonetic Institute. ...
Aesop's Fables in Words of One Syllable Printed in the Learners' Style of Phonography, or Phonetic Shorthand
(London: F. Pitman/Bath: Isaac Pitman, 1876)
This is the earliest of the four different dated Pitman-Godolphin booklets I have found. Here Pitman is at Phonetic Depot, 20 Paternoster Row in London. The price will be sixpence all the way through the 1888 edition. ...
Aesop's Fables in Words of One Syllable
(James Miller Publisher,, 1874)
This book seems to fit in between my 1869 first edition and the later book I have listed under 1879? from the same publisher. It is larger like the later book, and Miller's address is as in the later book. The book is ...
