Poudre St. Eloi

Description

1935? Two dust-jackets provided by La Poudre St. Eloi against wheat-decay. "The Little Fish and the Angler" and MM, both designed by J.T. Péras. The back cover of each dust-jacket offers a map of districts of France. The former has a claim that Colorado Beetle is radically destroyed by Doryx St. Eloi. "The Little Fish and the Angler" for $5 from Mme Denise Debuigne, Rennes, France, Feb., '05. MM for $6 from Bertrand Cocq, Calonne-Ricouart, France, Sept., '20.

The flaps on the inside of the dust-jacket offer tables of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Both fable illustrations are done with red and green coloring, and offer a rich background to their foreground focus.
