Abstract
This is a catalogue of a 1970 exhibition. Stuck-Villa is apparently the venue both for the exhibit and for the meetings of the group offering the exhibit. Wikipedia tells me that the villa was built as the residence and studio of Franz von Stuck (1863-1928) and today serves as the civic museum in Munich.The heart of the catalogue are the two parts of the Bibliographie, from 1535 to 1900 (41-112) and from about 1900 to about 1930 (119-160). There are pleasant examples of children's book art along the way; it was this rich assortment that first caught my eye in this book. Other parts of the book list lenders or offer essays and reflections. Fables are a staple here, though I can find only one or two illustrations of fables. The order can seem confusing. In each chapter it seems to be alphabetical by author or, failing an author, by title. Some of the fable entries I noticed are (by numbered entries): 91, 98-100, 102, 105-6, 123, 142-44, 147, 187, 239, 252, and 313. I note that there are some fifteen entries in the first half of the bibliography, that is before 1900, and only one entry after 1900. I am glad to see that five listings appear for Lothar Meggendorfer (439-43). This book has suffered some water damage, and there is a hole punched in its cover. Page 139 is lacking.
