- Abstract
- en_US This little volume is identical, except for its cover, with volumes I have from Urbino in Boston in 1870 and from Bernardin-B�chet et Fils in Paris in 1869, 1875, and 1885. The outstanding features of this copy by contrast with the others are two. First, the colored pictorial board covers are intact except for the crude taping of the spine. The covers show WL on the front and FS on the back and acknowledge Emrik and Binger in Haarlem as printers. Secondly, the publisher here is curiously "Bernardin-B�chet" and not "Bernardin-B�chet et Fils," as in the 1869, 1875, and 1885 versions. Did the son drop out briefly in 1877? I continue to like the images, for example, of the monkey and dolphin (120) and of the miser's hole (135).
