Aesop's Fables with Upwards of One Hundred and Fifty Emblematical Devices
(Thomas Cowperthwait & Co.,, 1841)
See my identical copy of 1839 from the same publisher with the same title. The only change I see here is that we have nice leather with Aesop's Fables embossed on the cover. The top of the spine is damaged. See my ...
The Fables of Aesop with a Life of the Author.
(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 ...
Three Hundred Aesop's Fables
(George Routledge and Sons, Limited, 1885)
Here is the fifth version I have found of this book by Routledge! It is closest to that listed under 1885?/90? but differs from it in several ways. The cover here presents an illustration in blue and orange of a young ...
Three Hundred Aesop's Fables
(George Routledge and Sons, 1885)
Once again I bought a book that I thought I had already, and it turns out to be different. In this case, this book is very much like two others that I already have. All share the same publisher, title-page, and printing ...
Aesop's Fables
(Boston: Lee and Shepard/NY: Charles T. Dillingham, 1878)
This book seems exactly identical, except for its cover, with the 1882 printing. As I note there, this printing is among the more serious Griset editions. It is also one of the few that names Rundell; others give only ...
Aesop's Fables
(Cassell & Company Limited,, 1890)
This book is internally identical with the Cassell and Company volume which I have listed under 1893/93? I am no longer certain that 1893 was the original date for this edition. This book is distinguished from that one ...
Aesop's Fables: A New Revised Version From Original Sources.
(Syndicate Trading Company, 1884)
This book reproduces almost identically the book published the same year by William Allison Company. It has the same misspelling of Weir's name on the title-page. This book adds R. Worthington under Copyright 1884 on the ...
Aesop's Fables
(Cassell Petter, and Galpin,, 1869)
It looks to me as though I have had a great piece of luck and have here a first edition of this work that would be so often reprinted. All the data square with Bodemann #344.1, including the lack of a printed date. The ...
Fables of Aesop and Others Translated into English with Instructive Applications and One Hundred and Ninety-Eight Illustrations
(Derby & Jackson, 1859)
Here is one of many cheap reprintings with new illustrations of the Croxall edition of 1722. Perhaps the first thing to notice about this edition is that the dedication to Lord Halifax has been dropped. The preface's ...
The Fables of Aesop with Instructive Applications Illustrated with One Hundred Engravings
(Printed and published by William Milner, 1843)
This book represents a nice version in better condition of the book I have listed under 1870? from Milner and Sowerby. Their place of business is now Halifax, whereas then it is London. The same size as that volume (3¾ ...
