Ezop: Basni

Abstract

This miniature book is 1 1/8 x 1 3/8 (22 x 30 mm). As the T of C at the end shows, it contains forty-one fables on 142 pages. It is a limited edition of 500 copies. A Greek flute-player takes up most of the title-page, and a collection of animals adorns a full page just after the closing T of C. There are small printer's designs of birds and animals after each fable. The edges are nicely marbleized in green and brown to match the cover's colors. Even in the land of Krilov, Aesop is still reprinted.
