Abstract

en_US Here is a happy occurrence. I could find almost no bibliographical information in this 8 x 11 pamphlet--except the name of one visual artist, J. Burton. I could also see from the information I had that I would face a challenging task, namely to find the other booklet(s) in the series, since this is Book 1. A routine check with earlier materials brought the happy event. It turns out that I had a similar experience in cataloguing Book 2 more than five years ago. Here the cover is red-and-gray heavy paper, as there it was green and gray. There are here 16 pages containing some twenty-seven fables. Burton's name is engraved into many of the illustrations. Griset does not seem to have any illustrations represented here, as he does in Book 2. My prizes here go to the illustrations for FWT and OR. The back cover again features the heron and some fish. Some of the pages are separating at the center. The copy is well worn. It once belonged to the Halifax Historical Society of Daytona Beach, FL.
