Abstract
The major find--and major bargain--in this trip to New Orleans! An Italian Krylov in good condition. And what must Milan have been like in 1945? This is my first book out of some 1330 that is dated 1945. Do not miss the lovely embossed cover. Four good colored illustrations: an elephant in a boat (#12), the quartet (particularly good, #27), flowers (#37), and the lion and the wolf (#48). Lots of good black-and-white work, starting with the delightful cartoons in the long introduction, which seems to be a disquisition on the history of the fable. Other good black-and-white work: of hens (#11), teacher and cub (#18), and dogs' friendship (both illustrations, #39). The last paragraphs of many are printed as inverse pyramids. My, what you can find if you scratch around!
