Aesop's Fables

Abstract

The curious history of this book goes on even further than I had thought! Platt had three different partners in a fairly short time: Peck in 1913, Nourse after that, with Munk apparently still later. This copy lacks the cover photo--if it ever had it. There is some water damage to a lower corner of many of the plates. Like the Platt and Munk printing, this printing recognizes the copyrights of Moffat, Yard, and Co. in 1905 and Platt and Peck in 1913. I bought this book largely to exemplify the turnover in publishers of a standard publication like this one.
