This book is identical with versions I have from 1839, 1841, and 1849. With all of these it shares the small size, here about 3¼ x 5. This version turns out to be the earliest I have of this version. Other versions' ...

A very nice run of Griset and Croxall. The plates are identical with those in my Aesop's Fables (1893?) by Cassell. This book, I would guess, is the inexpensive reprint of that. Only the paper (cheaper here), the title ...

First, there is this bad news: 195-201 are missing. This book uses apparently the same after Kirkall plates that were used in my Cowperthwait edition of 1850 and my 1840 edition of unknown origin. My test case for this ...

This very little book (3¼ x 4½) reproduces almost exactly my 1839 and 1841 editions from Thomas, Cowperthwait & Company, also in Philadelphia. It thus has 228 pages. This book has even smaller margins than those, and so ...

This book's closest relative is the edition by the same name in 1880 from the American Book Exchange. See my comments there. Its other close relative is the Arlington Edition by Hurst which I have listed under 1899?. ...

Many of the text-plates and apparently all the engravings here are identical with those in my 1863 Burnham edition. See my comments there. The margins are cropped closer here. The title-page and perhaps a few other pages ...

Now this is a real find! I thought I had a Croxall. The engravings (woodcuts?) are well done. A real gold mine! Besides the alphabetical T of C at the beginning, there is an index of subjects at the end. It refers ...

The engravings in the copy from Titles are especially well done. Besides the alphabetical T of C at the beginning, there is an index of subjects at the end. It refers mostly to the virtues inculcated in the longish ...

This book is internally identical in its plates with that which I have listed by the same publisher under 1866? Its few differences are these four: (1) It has a green and gold cover, (2) adds to the title-page New Edition ...

This copy is identical with one exception to a book I found five years ago from Columbia Basin Books. That copy had a cream-background board cover with a title of Warne's Edition of Aesop's Fables. At the top of the cover ...
