Godchaux Dust-Jackets · Carlson Fable Collection

Title: Godchaux Dust-Jackets
Description: 1900? 6 Dust jackets ("Couverture Cahier") "Fables de La Fontaine" by Auguste-Godchaux, Paris. Artist: L. Mimard. Colored presentations of individual fables and texts – both in ornamental frames -- on both covers. €6 each from Chromosetcollections on Ebay, Nov., '20.

Godchaux seems to be active up to the present. These colored images dramatize the fables in energetic ways, although within less energetic classical "frames." Best of the group of six might be MSA. Also good is "The Miser Who Lost His Treasure." The framework on front and back covers is identical. It includes floral patterns and several key fable images, like FC, LM, and WL.
