1930? Jeu des Fables. Jeu novo. 12 cards 6.75” x 3.8” each featuring three titles and a corresponding scene from the fable itself. Also a title-card with rules on the verso. Emmanuel Cocard. €40 from dienbienphu01 through Ebay, July, ‘25
The title-card of this game played with two different sizes of cards is slightly cut on the right edge. Emmanuel Cocard is well known to our collection for his large paperbound pamphlets of La Fontaine. His lively colored work continues here. What we have is the title-card and twelve cards featuring each 3 fables through a title and a sample scene. Ten fables are given two images each. The image of the exploding frog in OF gives a good sense of the liveliness of these images! Other strong images are both for OR; both for “Fox and Goat”; and WC. The title-card speaks of smaller cards with verses, which have apparently been lost. - Date
