Fables de la Fontaine N°2
(Imagerie Pellerin, 1985)
"This beautiful paperbound booklet is nearly identical with another in the collection. Its key difference is that Pellerin seems to update the copyright for every printing. In any case, both the cover and the rear colophon ...
Fables de la Fontaine
(Librairie Hachette, 1934)
"Earlier I had found a bound copy of this book. Now I have one not yet hardbound. What a delight! As I wrote then, I had known of this book earlier, since it is reviewed in "L'Illustration" of December, 1934. I find ...
Fables de La Fontaine classées par Ordre de Difficulté avec Notice en Tète de chaque Fable et notes
(Librairie Armand Colin, 1905)
I have this book in its later editions of 1916 and 1920. Here, in the best condition of all, is the earliest of the three from 1905. As I mentioned there, it classifies and organizes La Fontaine's fables in three levels: ...
Cassell's Illustrated Book of Fables: La Fontaine, Part 12
(Cassell, Petter, and Galpin, 1867)
"I have often wondered if I could lay my hands on some of the early subscription offerings of La Fontaine fables put out in twenty-two parts by Cassell, Petter, and Galpin in New York. Each segment cost $.50. Here is one ...

Mes Fables de La Fontaine
(Chez l'Auteur (Ch. Morellet), 1956)
I have long delayed cataloguing this little book, and now I have the chance to do it -- and the stimulus of having acquired a new edition. I cannot read all of these plagiarisms and pastiches, but I have enjoyed some. ...
Mes Fables de La Fontaine
(Chantreau & Fils, 1956)
This is a shorter book containing fifteen fables published in the same year as its source containing some one-hundred-and-thirty-one fables. This little volume has all the earmarks of a children's book but is not such, I ...
Fables de la Fontaine
(Pierre Didot l'Ainé et de Firmin Didot, 1817)
Here is a curious find. It combines a first half of La Fontaine's fables first published in An VII but now labelled 1817 with a second half still labelled An VII. Not only do I have copies of both halves, but I have just ...
Fables de la Fontaine, Tome Second
(P. Didot l'ainé et Firmin Didot, 1799)
This second of two volumes completes a set started nine years ago. The match with the first volume is not exact, even apart from the fact that this book has lost its covers. While much of the title-page is identical with ...
