Two copies of a charmingly illustrated mid-twentieth century juvenile edition of the fables of Aesop vibrantly illustrated in colour by E. H. Davie. Present here are two copies of this children's edition of the animal fables of Aesop illustrated throughout in colour by E. H. Davie.Davie is best known as one of the illustrators frequently used by Enid Blyton but little else about them is known.The first of the two copies of this edition present here is in the publisher's original cloth backed pictorial paper covered boards while the other has been rebound by Eric Sweet - with his bookplate to the front pastedown - with endpapers renewed.Eric Sweet was a keen collector of private press and fables. He studied at the Brighton College of Art before moving to London to work as a lettering artist and typographer for advertising agencies later becoming the head of Birmingham School of Printing. Sweet's bindings are unique and striking reflecting the topics of the volumes in distinctive style.Sweet has produced a chemise and slip case to house these two volumes. To the interior of the chemise is laid down the pictorial paper boards of the rebound volume.Undated; dated circa 1947 via the British Library.Aesop's Fables are a collection of brief moral tales attributed to a storyteller believed to have lived in ancient Greece around the 6th century BCE. These tales typically feature animals as characters who embody human traits and behaviours teaching practical life lessons through their interactions. Classic fables like "The Tortoise and the Hare" "The Boy Who Cried Wolf" and "The Ant and the Grasshopper" use simple narratives to convey enduring wisdom about virtues such as perseverance honesty and hard work. Two volumes - one in the publisher's original cloth backed pictorial paper covered boards and another rebound in cloth - housed in a cloth chemise and slip case. The pictorial boards of the rebound volume are laid down to the interior of the chemise. Externally excellent with rubbing to perimeters of paper covered boards. Bookplate to front pastedown of rebound cloth volume. Internally firmly bound. Pages exceptionally bright and generally clean with only the odd spot or light handling mark.
