Aesop's Fables [Korean Bilingual]
(Sam Joong Dang Publications Co. Ltd.Samjungdang, 1987)
A nicely produced paperback. T of C at the beginning. Ninety-seven fables. Some fables have morals, while others do not. I thought the T of C and texts might be lifted from a normal English edition, but inspection ...

Fables of Aesop
(Che Sa Yang Aw Sa CompanySisa Yongu, 1990)

(Augustae Vind. Et Friburgi Brisg. Sumptibus Fratrum Ign. Et Ant. Wagner, 1776)

Funny-folk Fables: Tales of Long Ago
(McLoughlin Brothers Inc.,, 1936)
