Never-Grow-Old-Stories Retold from Aesop's Fables
(Lyons & Carnahan, 1925)
This book contains thirty-eight of the best stories told for very little boys and girls who like cats and dogs, and lions and bears (at a proper distance), and who never tire of watching them or reading about their wise ...
Aesop's Fables. An Anthology of the Fabulists of All Countries.
(London: J.M. Dent/NY: E.P. Dutton, 1913)
Now I have worked my way back to a first printing of this classic! In keeping with previous annotations on this book, I will mention the distinguishing marks of the next printing (1918) as opposed to this one. The 1918 ...
Aesops Fables (Inside title: The Fables of Aesop)
(The Bour Company, 1911)
At last I have a good copy of this pamphlet. The upper right corner of the cover is cropped, but otherwise it is in reasonable condition for its age. This is a ten-page pamphlet, 4½ x 6, with The Cunning Fox on the cover ...
The Fables of Aesop: Selected, told anew and their history traced by Joseph Jacobs
(Macmillan Company, 1894)
I count twelve different editions of Jacobs/Heighway that I have collected before I finally got back to a first edition. This book has a green decorated cloth cover with gilt titles. It is inscribed in 1903. There is a ...
Aesop's Animal Fables Picture and Story Book
(Juvenile Productions Ltd., 1947)
This delightful picture book makes a point of putting appropriate clothes on its animals, right from the suspenders under the turtle's shell on the cover. The camel wears a fez! The stork wears a hat when she visits the ...
Aesop's Fables: A New Revised Version From Original Sources.
(Hurst & Company, 1910)
This book is done from the same plates as three others with the same title: from Allison in 1884, Worthington in 1887, and Phoenix in 1892. This edition has the dubious distinction of displaying two young men--a golfer ...
Aesop's Fables
(Haldeman-Julius Company, 1935)
I list this booklet separately from my other copy of Haldeman-Julius #44. For starters, its cover has changed. The title there was Aesop's Fables for Children and now it is simply Aesop's Fables. Inside the title was ...
Aesop's Fables
(Haldeman-Julius CompanyLittle-Blue-Books, 1935)
I make yet another listing for this form of Haldeman-Julius' Aesop's Fables because it differs slightly from the Hoyt and Carlson copies listed under the same title and year. The series name has shifted particularly on ...
Aesop's Fables with Upwards of One Hundred and Fifty Engravings on Wood
(C. WhittinghamJoseph Booker, Whittaker, Duncan et al, 1828)
This book is identical with versions I have from 1839, 1841, and 1849. With all of these it shares the small size, here about 3¼ x 5. This version turns out to be the earliest I have of this version. Other versions' ...
Aesop's Fables
(Barnes & Noble BooksBarnes & Noble Classics, 2005)
Barnes & Noble Classics apparently first published this book in 2003, perhaps in paperback. At first I thought this just another reprint -- and there have been many -- of Jones and Rackham's 1912 Heineman edition. This ...
