- Abstract
- en_US The good luck of finding a complete two-volume set of these albums has led me to include this set among the books of the collection, while another complete set remains among the objects. Here ninety numbered cards are pasted in around La Fontaine's text. Each fable has six colored cartoon-cards, except for the centerpiece, Les Animaux Malades de la Peste, which has twelve cards. The animals are dressed and playful. The exploding frog makes a pouf sound (#29). The fish rejected by the picky heron wear women's hats (#68)! The inside of the back cover gives a history of chocolate. Of course, in this history Jean-Antoine Brutus Menier stands out. This album's cover gathers many fable characters in a park setting, with pond and bridge. This album is in fair condition.
