1954réf. 1004349New York: Museum of Modern Art 1954. First trade edition of one of the most graphically striking modern editions of Aesop adapted from the limited edition of the same year signed and dated by Antonio Frasconi. Featured fables include "The Hare with Ability and the Tortoise with Staying Power" "The Jackdaw with Eclectic Plumage" and "The Flattered Raven and the Crafty Fox." Bursting with energy Frasconi's linocut images provide a comic counterpoint to Glenway Wescott's deadpan "narration" of the fables: the stag "took refuge springing amid the underbrush where his proud headgear entangled him. There as he struggled with the desolate sound of the hound coming closer and closer in a flash he developed a better sense of values." The Books of Antonio Frasconi 9. A near-fine copy in original publisher's envelope scarce signed. Side-stapled pamphlet measuring 8.25 x 6 inches: 32. Original buff pictorial wrappers printed in red and black. Linoleum block illustrations printed in black throughout text. Signed and dated "July 9 '75" by Antonio Frasconi at title. Upper corner lightly bumped.
