    Aesop's Fables: A New Version Chiefly from the Original Sources. Forty-Eighth Thousand. 

    Aesop; James, Thomas (John Murray, 1863)
    Here I think I have an early copy of Wolf's revision of Tenniel's work. Somewhere I have learned that Tenniel's original 1848 work published by Murray apparently got such a negative response that, before reissuing it (in ...

    The Fables of Aesop with a Life of the Author. 

    Aesop (NY: Hurd and Houghton. (Boston: E.P. Dutton and Company.), 1865)
    See my comments under the adjacent listing of the blue-covered edition found in Beaverton. This edition has red covers with five animals embossed on the front cover and WL on the spine. The plates seem exactly the same, ...

    The Fables of Aesop with a Life of the Author. 

    Aesop (NY: Hurd and Houghton, 1865)
    In many ways, this book is identical with the 1865 first edition. See my notes there. The differences I can see are that E.P. Dutton in Boston is not mentioned here. This edition is covered in bright green cloth with ...

    The Children's Picture Fable-Book Containing One Hundred and Sixty Fables 

    No Author (George Routledge and Sons, 1860)
    Hobbs gives 1860 as the date of the first edition of this work, by Routledge. Might this be it? The book is slightly larger in format than my 1861 Harper & Brothers edition. See my notes there. This edition features ...

    A Treasure House of Fables Instructive and Entertaining 

    Bussey, George Moir (Simpkin, Marshall, Hamilton, Kent & Co./Thomas D. Morison, 1860)
    Here is a fascinating knockoff of the earlier and lovelier Fables Original and Selected, published by Willoughby in 1842. This book lists on its title-page the authors from whom texts are being taken. It turns out to be ...

    Aesop's Fables 

    Aesop; Dalziel, Thomas Bolton Gilchrist Septimus,; Wolf, J; Zwecker, Johann Baptist (David Bogue, 1868)
    This book is internally apparently identical with the 1868 edition by Strahan that lists Edward Garrett as its editor. See my notes there. The cover has changed to a simple image of CP with Aesop's Fables above and below ...

    The Fables of Aesop 

    Aesop; Croxall, Samuel (translator); L'Estrange, Roger (translator); Townsend, George Fyler; Valentine, L (Frederick Warne and Co., 1868)
    At last I have found a copy--and now two--of an edition I found recommended early in my hunt for fable books. This book may be a good deal later than the date I am guessing for it. Compare with three other books, all by ...
