1823réf. 41589A Philadelphie: none listed. Good. First Edition Thus. Hardcover. 12mo; 4 iv 112 pages; Contemporary probably original binding: calf-backed marbled paper-covered boards. Significant wear to the binding sewing compromised considerable foxing throughout -- but a complete copy of this rare American edition of an Aesop's fables in French quatrains. Title page states: "Nouvelle edition dédié a la jeunesse." There is a dedication in verse quatrains to youth page 3 signed with initials at the bottom -- "F. M." "A LA JEUNESSE" The French text appears to the version of Jean-Baptiste Morvan de Bellegarde. The statement of a price in "sous" on the title page is odd but one noted library holding a copy of this rare edition helps confirm that this "Philadelphie" stated in the imprint is the city in Pennsylvania; the American Antiquarian Society copy states in their catalogue entry: "Place: United States; Pennsylvania; Philadelphia." There are three OCLC numbers but only six locations are scattered across the three accession numbers: Columbia Dickinson College Virginia Tech Georgetown University Millersville Univ. and AAS. See OCLC numbers: 1398897 21709607 and 198424372. Who was F. M. And did the un-named Philadelphia printer or bookseller responsible for this charming book for young students of French accept 75 U.S. cents rather than French "sous" for a copy Given that 1 sous = 5 centimes and 1 livre or franc = 20 sous this 1823 price would not really make sense at 3 francs 15 sous which would have been the price of a very expensive and luxurious volume indeed. Keep in mind that Victor Hugo's 1830 'Les Misérables' informs us that "une flûte de pain" = 1 sou. Was this book really priced at an equivilent cost to 75 wide baguettes of bread Perhaps our modern price is a bit low. . 1823. none listed hardcover

"These added designs by Sadeler are highlights in the history of book illustration" Hodnett p. 39.With a 20th-century bookplate and ink stamps. The copper plate for fable 90 had lost much of its detail and some others show slight degradation but in general they remained in good condition and are also well printed.

The binding is chipped and cracked at top of the spine and shows a few smaller defects but is also in good condition.
