1754003T2Typis Josephi Barbou Parisiis: 1754. 1754 pp. xlviij 305 Engraved Frontis. Fine headpieces and tail pieces engraved by Fessard Sornique and others. Foxed. 12mo. Disbound. All edges gold gilt. Brunet V/1788; Cohen 798. Gaius Julius Phadrus 1st century was a Thracian slave who translated Aesop's fables into Latin verse. He was certainly more than a reproducer of Aesop and can be credited with adding many fables of his own. A brief history of the Barbou Classics is given by Schweiger II 1269. In 1742 Lenglet de Fresnoy persuaded Coustelier to start a series which was meant to be a French rival to the Elzeviers - even surpassing them in terms of scholarship and typography. Though this effort soon exhausted itself it was revived by Jean Joseph Barbou in 1753. Seven of these attractive little books appeared in 1753-1755 and though there were more issued in the next decade there was not enough market interest to support a sustained publishing program. They still stand as a monument to French scholarship and typography. This copy is priced low enough to allow for a nice new binding. PRICE JUST REDUCED! SMALL BOX 5 Language: eng. No Binding. Good. Typis Josephi Barbou, Parisiis: 1754. unknown

19541004349New York: Museum of Modern Art 1954. First trade edition of one of the most graphically striking modern editions of Aesop adapted from the limited edition of the same year signed and dated by Antonio Frasconi. Featured fables include "The Hare with Ability and the Tortoise with Staying Power" "The Jackdaw with Eclectic Plumage" and "The Flattered Raven and the Crafty Fox." Bursting with energy Frasconi's linocut images provide a comic counterpoint to Glenway Wescott's deadpan "narration" of the fables: the stag "took refuge springing amid the underbrush where his proud headgear entangled him. There as he struggled with the desolate sound of the hound coming closer and closer in a flash he developed a better sense of values." The Books of Antonio Frasconi 9. A near-fine copy in original publisher's envelope scarce signed. Side-stapled pamphlet measuring 8.25 x 6 inches: 32. Original buff pictorial wrappers printed in red and black. Linoleum block illustrations printed in black throughout text. Signed and dated "July 9 '75" by Antonio Frasconi at title. Upper corner lightly bumped.
