Choix de Fables de la Fontaine 2
(Editions Chagor, 1950)
This second booklet in the series of four is another memorable squarish book, just over 8 and just less than 8 wide. Mallet's work is unique, and that quality makes the book memorable. In its 24 pages, five fables are ...
Jean Effel's La Fontaine

The curiosities surrounding this book keep coming. Apparently editions were published in both East and West Germany. Then the West German edition was picked up by the Gutenberg Book Guild in Frankfurt. This book replicates ...

Fables de La Fontaine
(Flammarion, 1952)
Here is a better copy, with dust-jacket, of the 1952 original of Pec's work that I first came to know through the reproduction of 1983. As I mentioned of the first copy, without a dust-jacket, it features good monochrome ...
Jean Effel's La Fontaine
(Rowohlt Verlag, 1955)
A curious find, especially because there is an East German edition (Jean de la Fontaine: Fabeln), published in 1955 with exactly these thirty-six illustrations but with translations by Martin Remane and an additional 42 ...
La Fontaine: Fables
(Librairie de Hachette, 1953)

La Fontaine: Fables
(Éditions du Milieu du Monde, 1955)
