Abstract
-
en_US
Wonderful treasures! The advertisement following the title page claims that Aesop is the usual first book for learning French. LaFontaine is not mentioned; the French of the fables is taken from the Latin of Abbé Paul. Fifty descriptions, one hundred fables (61-127), and a long dictionary (129-237). My good copy has some gnawing or wear on the upper left hand corner of the front cover and some interior pencil marks. It has no advertising on the inside of the front cover. The first extra has pencilling on the title page, a page of advertising before the title page, and an inscription (1882) on the inside front cover. The second extra has a watermarked cover and lacks the page of advertising before the title page. The original price was $.65. I will keep all three in the collection.
