- Abstract
- en_US Here is a second copy with some distinct differences from our first copy. This copy has a dust-jacket with a front-cover illustration of FS by Harry Rountree. It has a frontispiece of LM. It is inscribed at Christmas of 1941: a difficult time anywhere in the English-speaking world! The verso of the title-page adds "Made in England" to the material in our other, presumably earlier, printing. The red cloth cover seems to have a design of a sunburst with clouds, rather than a cloth with perhaps a now absent image attached. The back cover of the dust jacket advertises "The Royal Series." This is a sturdier and thicker copy. 256 pages. As the opening T of C shows, there are 58 fables. These are the only non-illustrated editions we have of Blanche Winder's work. Normally her texts are associated with the visual work of Harry Rountree.
