A lovely antiquarian volume featuring well-loved fables, along with an explanation of the moral they represent. Illustrations throughout by Harrison Weir.In fair condition. Boards scuffed/bumped and spine chipped to top and bottom. First few pages (flyleaf, title page, contents) are only just attached but are all present. Netting exposed to front and back. Endpaper has been drawn on by a child but this is faint as the colour of the drawing is dark, as is the endpaper. Previous owners’ names. Some foxing.
