Fables de La Fontaine, No. 1

La Fontaine: Fables
(Éditions du Milieu du Monde, 1955)
This may be the handiest complete edition of La Fontaine's fables that I have. Besides its bendable covers, it has an AI of fables at the back and even a place-marking ribbon. I wonder where and when I found this little book….
The Fables of La Fontaine
(Viking Press, 1954)
I have wanted for a long time to find a signed and numbered first edition of this important book. The red cloth cover has a lovely embossed LF emblem. I said when I catalogued the regular first edition of this book years ...
Neuf Fables de la Fontaine
(Club du Livre Sélectionné, 1957)
I enjoy this work. The cover and frontispiece of this unstapled pamphlet show La Fontaine extending out from an oval portrait and offering a book of fables. The frontispiece notes that this copy was printed for Monsieur ...

La Fontaine: Fables
(Librairie de Hachette, 1953)
Four fables are announced on the title-page of this 6.5x8 kids' book: MSA, Le Loup Devenu Berger, UP, and WL. They occur in just the opposite order! The La Fontaine text is unchanged. Of the simple, lively colored ...
Jean de la Fontaine: Fabeln
(Aufbau-Verlag, 1955)
Here is the first of two extra copies of this book. A wonderfully colorful East German edition. Best of the 'humorvolle, kecke und liebenswuerdige' watercolors: GA (11), FG (cover and 67), DW (173), and 'The Two Goats' ...
