Aesop's Fables with Upwards of One Hundred and Fifty Emblematical Devices
(Thomas Cowperthwait & Co.,, 1841)
See my identical copy of 1839 from the same publisher with the same title. The only change I see here is that we have nice leather with Aesop's Fables embossed on the cover. The top of the spine is damaged. See my ...
Aesop's Fables in Words of One Syllable.
(The Saalfield Publishing Company., 1925)
This book reproduces the one I have listed under 1905? from the same publisher with the same title. Thus it has 92 pages and includes four illustrations after Griset as well as many done after Weir. The cover here is red ...
The Fables of Aesop with a Life of the Author.
(NY: Hurd and Houghton, 1865)
In many ways, this book is identical with the 1865 first edition. See my notes there. The differences I can see are that E.P. Dutton in Boston is not mentioned here. This edition is covered in bright green cloth with ...
The Book of Fables: Containing Aesop's Fables, Complete, with text based upon Croxall, La Fontaine and L'Estrange. With Copious Additions from other Modern Authors
(Hurst & Co., 1890)
This book is like two others that I have. Its contents are very much like those in the Arlington Edition put out by Hurst and listed under 1899? There is no indication of an Arlington Edition here. It is exactly like a ...
Aesop's Fables
(Boston: Lee and Shepard/NY: Charles T. Dillingham, 1878)
This book seems exactly identical, except for its cover, with the 1882 printing. As I note there, this printing is among the more serious Griset editions. It is also one of the few that names Rundell; others give only ...
Aesop's Fables
(Cassell & Company Limited,, 1890)
This book is internally identical with the Cassell and Company volume which I have listed under 1893/93? I am no longer certain that 1893 was the original date for this edition. This book is distinguished from that one ...
Three Hundred Aesop's Fables
(George Routledge and Sons, 1885)
Once again I bought a book that I thought I had already, and it turns out to be different. In this case, this book is very much like two others that I already have. All share the same publisher, title-page, and printing ...
Aesop's Fables: A New Revised Version From Original Sources.
(Syndicate Trading Company, 1884)
This book reproduces almost identically the book published the same year by William Allison Company. It has the same misspelling of Weir's name on the title-page. This book adds R. Worthington under Copyright 1884 on the ...
Aesop's Fables
(Cassell Petter, and Galpin,, 1869)
It looks to me as though I have had a great piece of luck and have here a first edition of this work that would be so often reprinted. All the data square with Bodemann #344.1, including the lack of a printed date. The ...
Aesop's Fables. 2 in 1 Tales. The Lion and the Mouse/The Wind and the Sun.
(Modern Publishing: Unisystems, Inc., 1994)
Here is a new presentation of the same art that Hirata used in 1989 for his Joie set. The art here is certainly superior in presentation to the Peter Haddock series (1989?). It is darker than Joie's art, sometimes stronger ...
