Orsoli Montsouris Anti-German WWI Propaganda Broadside · Carlson Fable Collection

Title: Orsoli Montsouris Anti-German WWI Propaganda Broadside
Description: 1917? "La Fontaine l'avait bien dit!..." "Dessins de Louis Morin." Paris: Imprimerie Montsouris, P. Orsoni, directeur." Essay by Georges Blondel on the verso. 21½" x 14½. Perhaps €15, perhaps in St.-Ouen.

A fascinating piece of work with verses taken or adapted from La Fontaine's fables and applied to the Germans in WWI. I can find another product of "Imprimerie de Montsouris P. Orsoni" on the web, dated 1916. The imagery here is sometimes rough but thoroughly challenging!
Source: Perhaps €15, perhaps in St.-Ouen.
Date: 1971?
