Abstract

en_US
This book belongs to a family with another in the collection, published also by Bédelet, for which I have with Metzner and Bodemann guessed a date of 1847. That family is Bodemann #303. In fact, the four magnificent hand-colored illustrations here appear in sepia versions in our copy of #303.2. They are TMCM (19); Le Coche et la Mouche (44); Le Chartier Embourbé (55); and Le Savetier et le Financier (74). Three of the four were those I had chosen as best among the eleven in the larger edition! The only other internal art is the small black-and-white design of The Cat, the Weasel, and the Hare on the title-page. The cover, which surprisingly omits the title but gives the series name, Bibliothèque du premier âge, pictures The Peacock Complaining to Juno. That is another of the full-page sepia versions in the larger book. The title-page continues Accompagnées de Notes Explicatives. T of C on 80. Thirty-six fable texts.
