We have begun digitizing the books in this collection

The initial phase of the project is to digitize title pages, book covers, and other identifying information, though we will include a few complete books as we go.

Samples of our work so far ... Complete Books (pdf) | Title pages, covers, etc. (pdf) | Fables Illustrations - A new collection we are also developing!
