My Book of the Lion and the Mouse and Other Fables.

Abstract

This is really a printing for another publisher and audience of the same book I have listed under My Book of Aesop's Fables in 1962. It is the same book internally, but there are some very curious variations, starting with the title. The next is that my two printings listed under 1962 claim a copyright of that year for Fabri. Now this edition claims a copyright a year earlier for Fabri. The back cover here advertises the book as an Odhams All-Colour Book. The series listed there is very close to the series on the back of the St. Paul copy. My three different printings of this book thus show distinctive publishers' names in red on their spines. Carruth is acknowledged here on the title-page.
