The Fables of Aesop
(Schocken Books, 1894)
In 1966 Schocken published both hardbound and paperback editions of the Aesop by Jacobs and Heighway. It keeps as its cover illustration the picture from the hardbound dust-jacket: the dog loses his piece of meat into the ...
The Fables of Aesop
(Schocken Books, 1894)
In 1966 Schocken published both hardbound and paperback editions of the Aesop by Jacobs and Heighway. This is the 1979 printing of the paperback. The cover illustration has changed since the 1976 printing of the paperback. ...
The Fables of Aesop as first pr Vol I
(David Nutt, 1889)
Almost no illustrations. Helpful for deciphering Caxton's English. The two volumes from William Allen were early finds, and I have watched them deteriorate on the shelf for thirteen years. How nice now to find a set in ...
The Fables of Aesop as first p Vol II
(David Nutt, 1889)
Contains a good transcription into more readable text of Caxton's version. Helpful for deciphering Caxton's English. The Ryland frontispiece-engraving of Aesop as a shepherd is otherwise unknown to me.
The Fables of Aesop as first printed by William Caxton in 1484 Volume I
(David Nutt, 1889)
I had noted this book sitting on Midway's shelf for years. I once recommended it to the Heffelfinger collection in Minneapolis. I never realized that it was Joseph Jacobs' own copy. I am now especially delighted to add ...
The Fables of Aesop
(The Macmillan Co., 1894)
Identical with the 1929 printing of the 1894 edition except for the gaudy coloring of the frontispiece (a red fox and yellow grass!), the thick cheap paper, and the notation on the back of the title page that there was a ...
The Fables of Aesop (Hebrew)
(Maḥbarot le-sifrutMehaverot Lesifrut, 1996)
This large-format (8¼ x 11) book not only reproduces Jacobs' edition, with its eighty-two numbered fables. It expands the size of each of Heighway's illustrations, and so makes an excellent source for photographing them. ...
The Fables of Aesop
(The Book League of America, 1929)
This book duplicates and recognizes MacMillan's printings -- some fourteen of them -- between 1894 and 1929. It lacks the typical frontispiece of FS. The cover is red cloth with a simple printer's design on the front. ...
The Fables of Aesop
(Schocken Books, 1894)
This may be the best single simple edition of Aesop I know. Heighway is a wonderful illustrator. This edition presents the engravings quite crisply.
Aisopo Pasakos
(Spausdino Tevynes Spaustuveišleido V.K. Račkauskas, 1914)
This book seems to have been a grandfather of a book I received from Ann Ramagos, CSJ, in 1993: Ezopo Pasakos, published by UAB Algita in 1991. This is a hardbound version of some 346 pages, with illustrations by only ...
