Abstract

en_US
This book seems to be identical--except that it comes from a different publisher--with a beautiful book which I have listed under 1890? from the Wilhelm Effenberger Verlag in Stuttgart. This copy is lacking the colored illustration of the snowman that should be at 17. The title-page announces eight colored pictures, and there are only seven here. The dealer takes notice: 7 plates and cover; lacks Schneemann. As I mentioned a propos of the Effenberger edition, the eight colored illustrations are particularly well done. For these eight there is just one fable, text and illustration, on a page. Apparently all the fables from the original 1836 edition are here, including those--unillustrated and apparently never about animals--of the appendix. Hobbs writes well of Hey on 90 that he is sweetening the pill to such an extent that the old fable types have disappeared. Though Speckter is the most famous illustrator of Hey, I like this book particularly. This copy is inscribed in Braunschweig, apparently in 1905. Der Bär (facing 24) is loose here, just as it was there. This illustration provides the detail section that appears on the cover: the bear approaches the organ grinder. The spine is breaking down in this copy. .
