Abstract
This is a large-format (about 9 x 12) book of fables with several unusual points. The first is the dust jacket folded over the cover in overlapping sections and then pasted together to remain permanently in place. There are fifteen fables here, each receiving a title and text on the left-hand page and on the right a full-page illustration without border signed by Armand Rapeño. These are large, colorful, dramatic. Among the best are L'Enfant et le Miroir; L'Aveugle et le Paralytique; Le Singe qui Montre la Lanterne Magique (this fable receives a total of four pages); and Le Dancer de Corde et le Balancier. The paper of this book is unusually substantial. The book was originally sold by the Librairie du Lycée in Bordeaux.
