Aesop's Fables
(Avenel Books: Crown Publishing Co., 1912)
T of C and list of illustrations. Many fables! The T of C goes on at length! The black-and-white illustrations are well done, but the colored are not well presented here. They look a bit drab.
Aesop's Fables
(Wordsworth ClassicsWordsworth Editions Ltd, 1912)
Several years ago I found in London a very inexpensive (£.90) paperback reproduced in 1995 from material in the Rackham/Jones edition of 1912. Now I have hit the other end of the financial spectrum in this country. I ...
Aesops Fabelbuch (Cover and spine: Aesop's Fabeln)
(Georg W. Dietrich, 1913)
A beautiful book to go with my early editions in English and Swedish. Good runs of the colored and other illustrations. Original decorated light red cloth. This is a very dear gift. Dr. Schibel gave it to me as we ...
Aesop's Fables
(Wordsworth ClassicsWordsworth Editions Ltd, 1912)
Surprisingly, this paperback that costs only $1.44 includes apparently all the Jones texts and all the black-and-white Rackham illustrations. What a bargain! A suite like MSA's silhouettes (130-31) here occurs together ...
Aesop's Fables
(Pan Books, 1912)
I had never seen this much-reproduced book in paperback before. The edition is noteworthy for its wide pages: 224 pages of print are reduced to 153. AI at the back, but no T of C at the front. A spot-check reveals some ...
Aesop's Fables
(Gramercy Books: Outlet Book Company: Random House, 1912)
Publishing is strange territory. Avenel is no longer the publisher, but the ultimate publisher is in Avenel, NJ! This edition is in the line of my 1912/75? rather than my 1912/80? edition, since it does not group the ...
Aesops Fabelbuch
(Georg W. Dietrich, 1913)
A beautiful book to go with my early editions in English and Swedish. Beautiful runs of the colored and other illustrations. Original decorated brown cloth. Serendipity's own comment points out correctly that the book ...
Fables d'Ésope 2: Les Hommes
(Éditions Corentin, 1995)
This is a tight little book, 6 x 7¾. It contains eighty-six of Aesop's fables drawn from either Chambry's 1927 translation or a version done by Hachette in 1913 without attribution to an author. To go with those texts ...
Fables d'Ésope 1: Les Animaux
(Editions CorentinÉditions Corentin, 1995)
This is a tight little book, 6 x 7¾. It contains ninety-six of Aesop's fables in a version done by Hachette in 1913 without attribution to an author. To go with those texts there are seventeen full-page illustrations ...
Aesop's Fables
(London: William Heinemann/NY: Doubleday, Page, and Co., 1912)
This book has a twofold claim to fame. First, it is a first edition of Rackham's Aesop's Fables. Thus the colored illustrations are thus very well done, and protected by slipsheets with the name of the illustration at ...
