Abstract

en_US This 12-page pamphlet was bought together with a 24-page Tisane Cisbey Alphabet catalogued under 1936?; slightly different in format, they share similar back covers. And they similarly offer digestive care through Cisbey's herbal tea. Here a pleasant red cover shows the animals of La Fontaine's best known fables gathered around a cream-colored book showing the pamphlet's title. Inside we find, after a page of advertising for Tisane Cisbey: OF; LM; FC; GA; Le Laboureur et ses Enfants; WL; and DS with a single illustration. Most stories have at least a pair of two-colored illustrations. FC has five illustrations, all well done. The inside back-cover is pasted over with a simple statement saying that Tisane Cisbey has fifty years of success in combating constipation. I would love to know what got pasted over! That last claim suggests the date I have guessed for this pamphlet. Apparently Cisbey began in 1897. Might they have been bought out by Laboratoires Beytout, listed on this paste-on? The other pamphlet mentions rather Laboratoires Cisbey. Or might the war have brought a change of ownership?
