Abstract

en_US This book is exactly identical with another copy in the collection except for the very last line on the last page. Where that book has 1835-0 . -- Corbeil. Imprimerie Crété this volume has 10593-00. -- Corbeil. Imprimerie Crété. Perhaps someday having this copy at hand will help someone comparing various printings of the same book. For me the difference in hand-painting of the nine illustrations is fascinating! I will excerpt some of my comments there but note that this volume is even more fragile. Bodemann #339.2. The special feature of this fragile little volume is the series of nine (hand-colored?) full-page illustrations inserted into the book. The lack of slipsheets with them constitutes, I suppose, a second difference. The illustrations include: L'Enfant et le maitre d'ecole (19), L'Astrologue qui se laisse tomber dans un puits (39), MSA (41), Le Berger et la mer (59), TB (a favorite of mine, 101), MM (133), L'Ours et l'amateur des jardins (159), Le Gland et la citrouille (190), and Le Vieillard et les trois jeunes hommes (241). The illustrations, printed on only one side of the page, are carefully inserted so that they refer to the text facing them. There is an AI at the back. See now under 1881? my comments on an earlier edition of this book.
