    Fables de La Fontaine avec Les Commentaires de Coste, Vol. I 

    No Author (Chez Billois, Libraire, quai des Augustins, 1810)
    I have a copy of this pair of lovely little volumes and even a second copy of the second volume, but all three are in poor condition. Now I have been lucky enough to find a pair in good condition and apparently complete, ...

    Fables de La Fontaine avec Les Commentaires de Coste, Tome Second 

    No Author (Chez Billois, Libraire, quai des Augustins, 1810)
    I have two copies of this lovely little volume, but they are in poor condition. Now I have been lucky enough to find this two-volume work in good condition and apparently complete, including, for example, the MM frontispiece ...

    Fables de La Fontaine, Vol. I, avec de nouvelles gravures executées en relief 

    La Fontaine, Jean de (Ant. Aug. Renouard, 1811)
    This pair of volumes represents quite a little find. As I learned from a David O'Neal offering of the books, this edition represented a first in printing history. Duplat's experiment in relief engraving in stone combined ...

    Fables de La Fontaine, Vol. II, avec de nouvelles gravures executées en relief 

    No Author (Ant. Aug. Renouard, 1811)
    See my comments on Vol. I. Enjoy the father's frustration in the background as his daughter rejects yet another suitor (14). MM (25) is dramatic; Bodemann notes that it was done after a work by Moreau. The Oyster and ...

    Fables de La Fontaine avec Les Commentaires de Coste, Vol. I 

    Coste, Pierre; La Fontaine, Jean de (Chez Billois, Libraire, quai des Augustins, 1810)
    This lovely little pair of volumes seems to be a reprinting of Bodemann #135.11, published in 1802. They are small in size, 3½ x 5½. The illustrations seem to be done after Oudry, though, as the Bodemann comment indicates, ...

    Fables de la Fontaine 

    No Author (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 ...

    La Fontaine's Fables Now First Translated from the French By Robert Thomson With Elegant Engraved Figures 

    Thomson, Robert (Gaglignani, 1817)
    This book is a curious find representing three-fourths of another edition, sold (and published?) eleven years later by a publishing house and bookstore still thriving in Paris. Chenu in Paris did a first edition set of ...
