- Description is exactly "1952? French dust-jacket, 9½" x 7", apparently for a school book, advertising "Amora: La Moutarde de Dijon." €5 at St. Ouen, August, '17. One duplicate for $5 from Mme Denise Debuigne, Rennes, France, Feb., '05.
The colorful mix of reds, yellows, and greens follows the pattern on Amora's blotter of the same era. Here La Fontaine appears in a medallion in the upper center. Around him are five fables. Four are named and illustrated: WL; "The Fox and the Goat"; LM; and "The Little Fish and the Angler." Another, FC, is pictured on a glass container of Amora mustard. As the back of the cover makes clear, there is a set of twelve glasses in the set, each with a different fable. Now that would be a set to find!"
