    Oeuvres Complètes de Jean de La Fontaine 

    La Fontaine, Jean de; Walckenaer, C. A (Chez Firmin Didot Frères, Fils et Cie, Libraires, 1857)
    Here is a heavy 684-page tome that seems to have all of La Fontaine's works, starting with the fables. It is larger than my 1854 Fables et Oeuvres Diverses de J. La Fontaine by the same editor and from the same publisher. ...

    Bennett's Fables from Aesop and Others 

    Bennett, Charles H (Viking Press, 1857)
    I already have several copies of this book, but this copy has a difference. The copy came in an eBay sale of several good recent illustrated fable books at a good price. The difference in this copy comes on its dust ...

    The Fables of Aesop (small format) 

    Parker, Willis L. (compiler) (Illustrated Editions Co., 1857)
    I wrote of a Parker-Bennett-Illustrated Editions book that I found in 1994 that I could not believe that I had found another variation on a very often-played theme. This present book stayed on the shelf of not yet catalogued ...

    Fables of Aesop and Others Translated into English with Instructive Applications and One Hundred and Ninety-Eight Illustrations 

    Aesop (Clark Austin & Smith,, 1857)
    Except for its cover, this little (4¼ x 6¼) book is identical with the Cowperthwait edition of 1850. Even the last word of the index on 358 has a similarly fractured letter h so that it misses its upper portion. The cover ...

    Fables Original and Selected 

    Northcote, James (G. Routledge & Co., 1857)
    This lovely little book may not fit into a collection of Aesop. At first I was going to exclude it. But Aesop is on the cover and he is behind more than a few of the fables, notably The Dog and the Stork, which turns out ...

    The Fables of Aesop 

    Aesop; Parker, Willis L. (compiler) (World Publishing Company, 1857)
    The bonanza of Bennett editions continues! This one has the 1931 copyright; the revised 1933 (not the 1931) introduction--but it is not dated, as it is in other 1933 editions; it is from a different publisher (World--as ...

    Bennett's Fables from Aesop and Others 

    Bennett, Charles H (Viking Press, 1857)
    Lively and delightful illustrations, here reproduced vividly. If there is a problem with Bennett's wonderful pictures, it is that the social commentary is so pointed that we lose or miss something as we view them in a ...

    Ésope: Le Renard Qui Avait la Queue Coupée et Autres Fables. 

    Aesop; Farré, Marie-Raymond (Enfantimages: Éditions Gallimard, 1857)
    Beautifully reproduced colored pictures of seventeen fables from Bennett. The color work may be superior to that in editions from this country. The clever cover-picture is not included inside the book. The Wolf in the ...

    The Oak & the Nettle 

    André, R (Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge/E. & J.B. Young & Co., 1857)
    Here is the kind of surprise that fuels this collection. First, there is clearly a series of fable booklets of which I had known nothing. How many others are there? Second, this booklet presents a different pattern from ...

    The Fables of Aesop 

    Aesop; Parker, Willis L. (compiler) (Three Sirens Press on spine. NY: De Luxe Editions: Illustrated Editions Co, 1857)
    I cannot get over the plethora of 1931 and 1931/33 Bennett editions! This one is identical with my 1857/1931/33 editions except for two features: both cover materials are different, this one featuring green felt and woven ...
