Abstract

en_US Here is a second and slightly better copy of a book already in the collection; in fact, there is already a duplicate copy in the duplicate collection. The spine in particular is in better condition than in the copy found at St.-Ouen in 2009. As I wrote about that copy, I tried a quick search to see when Artima flourished. Apparently in 1952 it became a major publisher of comics, "Bandes Dessinées." J.A. Dupuich even did some art work for at least one of these. I am guessing that this volume comes from the earlier years, between Artima's founding in 1943 and its comics years. This is a particularly clean large-format book of 32 pages. The title-page, like the cover, gives a visualization of the fables that appear here. The fables include: "Flying Fish"; "The Monkey and the Magic Lantern"; "The Young Man and the Old Man"; "The Dog and the Cat"; "The Child and the Mirror"; "The Nightingale and the Prince"; ""Ape, Monkey, and Nut"; "Le Vacher et le Garde-Chasse"; "The Cricket"; "The Two Cats"; "The Blind and the Lame"; "The White Elephant"; "The Cat and the Rats"; and "The Two Travellers." Good selection of fables and spirited illustrations. The illustrations for "Dog and Cat" are a good, lively example of the enjoyable illustrations here (10-11). Canvas binding.
