Ein Kalender für das Jahr 1933 Mit Fabeln nach Aesop und Anderen (Cover: Klingspor Kalendar für das Jahr 1933)
(Gedruckt und herausgegeben von Gebr. Klingspor, 1933)
This is one of the happiest finds of my twenty-five years of collecting. I first knew of this book from Anne Stevenson Hobbs' book on books in the Victoria and Albert Museum. I had it in my hands when I visited the museum. ...
Aesop's Fables Hankie Book
(W.R. Woodard Co. by permission of Van Beuren Corporation, 1931)
It took twelve years, but this purchase solves a mystery. I had found a copy of this book in 1999 and saw it as a coloring book. What it has to do with a hankie neither the seller nor I can figure out, I wrote then, ...
Aesop's Fables
(George Harrap, 1936)
Here is one of the newest jewels of the collection. I have looked for it for a long time, but the cost has been prohibitive and the edition very limited. I finally found a copy and said to myself that it belongs in the ...

The Subtyl Historyes and Fables of Esope.
(The Grabhorn Press, 1930)
What a wonderful find! I had seen it a couple of months earlier for $550 at the San Francisco International Book Dealers' show. Slight round stain on the cover. This book presents the first six books of Caxton's work, ...
New Lamps for Old: Story Lessons from Aesop
(James Clarke & Co. Ltd., 1937)
This book is meant to lead children from fables to the Kingdom of God. The old fables have new meanings for Christians. The book presents eighty-four fables on 132 pages. Each fable is followed by relevant scripture ...
Famous Fables of Aesop
(Little-Blue-Books, 1935)
There are sixty-four pages of fables in this little pamphlet. No T of C or AI; no art except the black-and-white elephant, trainer, and mouse on the cover. The inside back cover is an advertisement for booklets under the ...
Aesop's Fables
