Jean de la Fontaine: Fables Choisies I
(Société les belles lettres, 1934)
"I searched for this pair of volumes for months and found them in my "extras":collection. Perhaps I got partway through cataloguing them or recataloguing them. In any case, what a joy to find them now! Earlier I had ...
La Fontaine: A tücsök es a hangya
(Mora Ferenc Könyvkiadó, 1977)
On this foray into the old Eastern Europe, I found Jean Effel more than once. It is good to see that an excellent artist was picked up and reproduced in the Eastern Block countries! This edition includes 21 fables with ...
Les Fables de La Fontaine pour Bebe
(Théodore Lefèvre et Cie., 1886)
This book reproduces another in the collection, but with several changes. It might be several years younger than my other copy. Notice these differences. On the front cover, the publisher's name is inside the frame ...
The Fables of La Fontaine
(Viking Press, 1954)
I have wanted for a long time to find a signed and numbered first edition of this important book. The red cloth cover has a lovely embossed LF emblem. I said when I catalogued the regular first edition of this book years ...

(Verlag Moritz Diesterweg, 1974)
Before the fables start in this 80-page pamphlet, there is a helpful two-page Bestiaire des Fables, picturing various animals who will appear in these fables. Vocabularies for individual fables then drive students back ...
La Fontaine: Fables
(Éditions du Panthéon, 1961)
This is a nice looking edition, often using two colors for the texts. No editor is acknowledged. I like the Dandelot water-color illustrations. They are big, bold, and colorful. Unless the cover counts as one of the ...
Fables de Florian, Suivies de Tobie et de Ruth
(Garnier Frères, 1850)
At last I have a worthy copy of this classic. The strange thing now is that I can find no reference to it in the literature. Hobbs, Bodemann, Schiller, and my favorite private collector seem to know nothing of this book. ...
