The Aesop for Children
(Barnes & Noble Books, 1919)
This third impression seems to have no changes from the first impression. This is an attractive green-covered book. Its pages are slightly reduced in size from those of the classic Rand McNally editions but larger than ...
Äsops Fabeln für die Jugend: 108 Fabeln
(Loewes Verlag Ferdinand Carl, 1914)
Neu bearbeitet und mit moralischen Anmerkungen versehen. Here is the ninth edition. Again there are 102 pages of fables and two pages of advertisements. I find little difference from the seventh edition, for which I ...
Äsops Fabeln für die Jugend: 108 Fabeln
(Loewes Verlag Ferdinand Carl, 1912)
Neu bearbeitet und mit moralischen Anmerkungen versehen. Here is the eighth edition. Again there are 102 pages of fables and two pages of advertisements. I find no difference from the seventh edition, for which I guessed ...
Aesop's Fables Profusely Illustrated.
(The World Syndicate Publishing Co., 1910)
This book is essentially a reprinting of the 1910? Goldsmith edition with a brown cover given me by Elizabeth Willems. The cover is imprinted with the same design of lamps and books. The book shows the same mistake as ...
Aesop's Fables
(London: William Heinemann/NY: Doubleday, Page, and Co., 1912)
T of C and list of illustrations. Both the colored and black-and-white illustrations are very well done. The colored illustrations come alive in this early edition, e.g., The Crab and His Mother, The Blackamoor, 2P, Venus ...
Fables: Aesop and Others
(London: J.M. Dent/NY: E.P. Dutton, 1913)
A packed little volume, with eighteen chapters divided by author. No illustrations. Good modern versions of people like Caxton. This book has been very helpful in preparation of the course on fables this past semester. ...
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 ...
Aesop's Fables: A New Revised Version From Original Sources.
(Hurst & Company, 1910)
This book is internally exactly the same as books of the same title that I have listed in the same year. That it has exactly the same plates is clear, e.g., from the broken typeface at the top of 5. It repeats the blooper ...
Aesop's Fables, with 100 Illustrations
(J.B. Lippincott, 1916)
At last I am delighted to get back to a first edition of this important work. Mary Keane's gift of a second edition (1916/17) got me going; see my comments there. In fact, I had just finished an extensive review of that ...
Aesop's Fables: A New Edition with Proverbs and Applications
(Frederick A. Stokes Company, Publishers, 1910)
See my remarks on what I take to be the original book, published by Bliss, Sands, and Company in 1897. This edition is notable by contrast for its cheaper paper and, therefore, for the poorer precision of the illustrations. ...
