The Fables of La Fontaine II
(Estes and Lauriat, 1881)
Here is an extra copy. This is the second of two volumes with gold embossed blue-and-white covers in excellent condition. It combines the final two volumes of the set of four which I found at Goodspeed's in March, '89, ...

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 Lafontaine: Imagerie d'Épinal: 6me Série, No. 5
(Pellerin & Companie, 1850)
Luckily, I have a copy -- presumably No. 1, since it is unnumbered -- from Pellerin's sixth series. It is uniform in format with this and a companion volume, No. 2 in the sixth series. The particular point of identity ...

Here is an extra copy of this book. This is a straightforward text of 57 of La Fontaine's fables with commentary before and notes after each fable. The book then adds thirteen fables without comment or notes. It is ...
Fables from La Fontaine in English Verse
(John Murray, 1820)
Here is a second copy of this book, with a detached front cover. The good copy, by contrast, is in amazingly good condition for its age. Unfortunately there are no illustrations involved, and I cannot find an indication ...
Fables de La Fontaine
(Imagerie d'Épinal, Pellerin & Cie., 1890)
Here is a second copy of this book with loose early pages. This large (16½ x 12½) book represents a wonderful find. It brings together the broadsides or posters I have found from Pellerin/Épinal, displayed at ...
Fables de J. de la Fontaine
(Bernardin-Béchet et Fils, 1875)
Here is an extra copy of this book, this one with a green cover. A handy little volume of the complete fables. Good paper. The engravings are nicely done--but most lack sparkle. The best are of the monkey and dolphin ...
