- Abstract
- en_US My, what you do not find when you ask! This Swedish version of Rackham was offered to me as the Danish first edition for $250. It seems to reproduce the 1912 Heinemann illustrations faithfully except for the way in which it handles the original thirteen colored inserts. One of them (The Moon and Her Mother) seems to have been dropped. Six of them are done as inserts but in black-and-white. The other six appear in their original form. After I worked this all out, I discovered the list of illustrations, consisting of precisely these twelve, on 18, just before the AI of fables. There is an new engraving not in the 1912 version; just before the title page, it presents Aesop as a shepherd with sheep in a field. See 1932/65 for a reproduction of this book that I received just two weeks earlier!
