Abstract

en_US I cannot find out much about Éditions I.P.C. except that they published in the years 1944 and 1946. This is one of two stapled albums of some 16 pages in landscape format about 10¾ x 8¼. This volume presents seven fables: WL, TH, The Heron, OF, DW, The Lion and the Mosquito, and TT. Each fable receives a two-page spread. La Fontaine's fable is offered or at least begun. Then statements fitting the fable are presented in the cartoons, which number about eight or nine to a fable. Animal characters wear at least some human clothing. This edition features brown ink. TH uses cars and TT planes. Both of those vehicles are pictured on the red-and-orange cover. The presentation is both faithful to La Fontaine and lively. My favorite here is OF; at its end the exploded frog is carried out on a stretcher by two Red Cross bulldogs. There is a T of C on the last page. Were there more albums in the series?
