    Fables of Aesop and Others. Newly done into English. With an Application to each Fable. Illustrated with Cutts 

    Aesop (NA, 1727)
    This book lacks a title page. It was sent to me for analysis by Mercy in Action, to which it had been donated. It also lacks a spine and cover, and has copious writing and doodling, for example, on the early pages. It ...

    De Nieuwe Aesopus. Groot Fabelboek voor Jong en Oud. 

    Aesop; Griset, Ernest Henry; Leopold, M (J.B. Wolters, 1880)
    Beautiful and copious Griset work, though some turns out dark even in so careful an edition. There seem to be three different kinds of Griset engravings. The fables come from various authors. Curiosities include eyeglasses, ...

    The Fables of Aesop as first pr Vol I 

    Aesop; Caxton, William; Jacobs, Joseph (David Nutt, 1889)
    Almost no illustrations. Helpful for deciphering Caxton's English. The two volumes from William Allen were early finds, and I have watched them deteriorate on the shelf for thirteen years. How nice now to find a set in ...

    Twenty Four Fables of Aesop and other Eminent Mythologists. 

    Aesop; L'Estrange, Roger (translator) (Ernest Benn, 1928)
    Identical after the title page with the Dutton edition printed in England (1928?). Most of the illustrations are taken from Gheeraerts' edition from Bruges of 1567 (the three others are from Gheeraerts' work published in ...

    Schoene Fabeln des Altertums 

    Aesop; Babrius; Gasse, Horst; Lenck, Wolfgang; Phaedrus (Dieterich'sche Verlagsbuchhandlung, 1955)
    Nice titles give the point (but not the characters) of each fable. The two vignettes face the title page (FG, well done) and the beginning of the collection. The extra copy differs in having an ISBN number, a different ...

    Child's Own Fable Book 

    Aesop; James, Thomas; Northcote, James,; Tenniel, John (Leavitt and Allen, 1860)
    This fat little book includes two parts: Aesop's Fables (I) and Fables (II). It is an earlier (even first?) edition of a work I had found earlier and have listed under 1870? This work, like that, will delight those ...

    Child's Own Fable Book 

    Aesop; James, Thomas; Northcote, James,; Tenniel, John (Leavitt & Allen, 1870)
    This fat little book will delight those tracking fable publication. A frontispiece from Weir introduces a book with Thomas James' 1848 introduction placed (Theddington Vicarage) but not signed. James' 203 fables in I ...

    The Fables of Aesop and La Fontaine. 

    Aesop; Goulden, Shirley; La Fontaine, Jean de (Duell, Sloan and Pearce, affiliate of Meredith Press, 1958)
    A wonderful find sitting out on the table waiting for me! Excellent condition. Nineteen fables with witty and exuberant watercolors, many featuring cute insects having fun around the central action. The best illustration ...

    Bewick's Select Fables of Aesop and Others 

    Aesop; Dodsley, Robert; Goldsmith, Oliver; Pearson, Edwin (Bickers and Son Leicester Square,, 1886)
    This book seems to be the third reprint of Bewick's work to have appeared about the same time. I have copies from Bickers in 1871 and Longmans in 1878. As I mention there, the simple wood engravings are lovely. Good ...

    The Fables of Aesop as first printed by William Caxton in 1484 with those of Avian, Alfonso, and Poggio, now again edited and induced by Joseph Jacobs. 

    Aesop; Caxton, William (translator); Jacobs, Joseph (Burt Franklin, 1889)
    The Same as Volume 1 of the David Nutt entry. Do not miss the index (225) and especially the synopsis (229). I am eager to try some of Jacobs' scholarship. There is a wonderful pedigree of Caxton's Aesop facing 1.
