Esop Basni: Mythoi Aisopeioi
(Jantarniy Skaz, 1999)
"It has been fun digging into this very small (3½" x 4") but sturdy book. Gasparov's translations have already found a place once in this collection, in a 2003 edition by Eksmo with the illustrations of Rackham. Here the ...
The Fables of Aesop: Selected, told anew and their history traced
(F.M. Lupton Publishing Company, 1894)

Aesop's Fables
(J.B. Lippincott Company, 1949)

((Joseph Frister), 1807)

Aesop's Fables for Little Readers
(T. Fisher Unwin, 1880)

Aesop's Fables Profusely Illustrated
(The World Publishing Co., 1910)

The Fables of Aesop
(View Productions, Pty Ltd., 1985)
"There was a spate of reprintings of Detmold's "The Fables of Aesop" about the time that copyright on his 1909 edition ran out. This has a larger page format than those others, and it does not paste in his colorful ...
Aesop's Fables
(Cassell Petter, and Galpin,, 1873)
This is a second and poorer copy of the second edition. Like the better copy, this book has the same format, cover design, pagination as the first edition, done perhaps in 1869. See my comments there. The cloth cover ...
