Abstract

This book is almost identical with another in the collection. The differences are small but may help someone researching books someday. I will presume that this is the later copy. It adds three new places on the title page: San Francisco, Dallas, and Toronto appear along with Philadelphia and Chicago mentioned in the earlier printing. The colored design on the title page has lost one of its earlier colors: there is no blue to go along with the tan or orange. Turn the page and besides the copyright date and name of the publisher, there are two phrases: "Entered at Stationer's Hall, London" and "Printed in the U.S.A." This copy also adds "Price 48 cents" on the back cover underneath the Winston logo. I will repeat comments I made on that earlier printing. Good several-color illustrations, of which my favorite is TT (17). As often with Richardson's work, the color alignment is sometimes poor. Other fables included are: "Fun for the Boys" (18), DW (19), and LS (23). Two fables are presented as plays: TMCM (28) and TB (101). Three non-Aesop fables show up, too: "Why the Lion Liked the Elephant" (Eastern, 21), "Why the Dog Is an Enemy of the Cat" (Russian, 25), and "The Stone in the Road" (Eastern, 61).
